How many lights and cost are needed for a thousand plants?
First, let's understand how many plants can be planted in a regular tent and how many lights are needed.
Grow Tent Size
Estimated Plant Capacity
Number of lights(Take our SH series as an example)
2' x 2'
1-4 plants
1-2 SH1200
3' x 3'
2-6 plants
1-2 SH1200 or 1 SH2000
4' x 4'
4-16 plants
2-4 SH1200 or 1-2 SH2000
5' x 5'
6-20 plants
1-2 SH4000
8' x 8'
16-30+ plants
2-4 SH4000 or 16 SH1200
Important Note: These are just estimates. The actual number of plants you can fit depends on factors like plant variety, pot size, and your chosen growing techniques.
This is a picture provided by our customers. They are only cultivating seedlings. 8 SH1200 can meet the cultivation of 120 plants. But when the seedlings grow up, the number of lights needs to be increased.
This picture shows the number of SH4000s needed when the plants are growing. The room area is about 8x10ft. So 5 SH4000s are needed.
So we can roughly calculate the maximum number of plants that can be placed in a tent.

The above table is an estimated cost. Depending on the plant variety, the size of the growing room, and the planting method, the cost will be lower or higher.Of course if you buy our lights, we will give you the lowest price.
