Noteworthy Budget Alternative light for 4 x 4: FloraFlex 700 Watt (Nevermind, runs too hot) Its good if you are growing in the winter.

UPDATE AGAIN: 11/22/24 BLACK FRIDAY 2024
Black Friday Article released, The 4 x 4 Mars Hydro full kit and the 2 x 4 AC infinity full kit are GOAT status. Ionboard and new Vivosun Pro Line Tents were conducted and the verdict is in the list above. It is what I would actually purchase if I was a new grower. The automated controls on all of the new controllers seem to dependent on wifi and connectivity and I have sense reverted back to old technology. No need for those fancy controllers since all of the feed charts I have list the manual fan speed, so save a buck and check out the updated 2024 best value list.

UPDATE AGAIN 7/6/24: Mars Hydro has a sick deal on the 4×4 light linked, total is $375 with all coupons applied, codes in the link above.
The 4 x 4 pieced out is better simply because a bar light is way better than the panel lights included in both 4 x 4 all in wonders. The spider farmer 2 x 4 all in wonder is still the better deal.

UPDATE AGAIN 5/17/24: The Bestva light has been discontinued. The list has been updated to the next best thing which is the Mars Hydro FC4800 (not the E version). I have used this light in my 2023 Strain Hunt: https://youtu.be/e78FFDee6dk it ends up being $135.00 more but for a 4 x 4 setup, it is still the best quality for the least when compared to the other 4 x 4 complete kits because it is a bar light with LM301B diodes which distributes light more evenly and is more efficient. Also the soil is a 2 pack which is good enough for 5 5 Gallon Pots. For further savings, just find the soil at your local Blaine’s Farm instead.

Scientific Journal that shows that lower temperatures in Bloom have shown to improve THC content in 4 different strains. I bring down temperatures to high 60’s or low 70’s in late bloom, which is impossible with the AC infinity S series lights: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/0305197875900368?via%3Dihub

Using coupon codes and clippable coupons we actually ended up getting the best deal in a custom setup for a 4 x 4 tent, but we find that Spider Farmers 4 x 2 All in One kit cannot be beat if you have a prime account.
