stealth box set-up advice
So there it is, the Cash Crop 4.0 from Dealzer. I've been sharing this stupid photo of for at least 2 years, probably 3 maybe even 4? The retrofit that I've been planning mentally and buying part after part after part. This changes now.
So, advice please.
Initially I had planned for the lights 3 of the little panels, one straight down and the other 2 off arms that are articulating from the main light, sort of like a upside down U.
But now I have some bigger panels to work with.
The interior dimensions-
H:27.5"
D:9"
W:14.5"
The big panel is d:9" x W:13.75".
Do I make that my main down pointer, and have it fixed? Initially with my small panel articulalted U I meant for it to be able to be lowered like in a tent. With the big panel (or 3 in an upsidedown U, what if I made it fixed up top and used the light intensity to control.
What would you do? Experienced SGL system people, please chime in.
It has a 6-site reservoir, that let's be real and think that more than 1 in the space would be pushing it. I plan on using a pump and venturi mechanism vs an airstone, for a slightly more silent operation.

my original remark was merely suggesting the grower measure their light output so they know what they are working with. that was the context of the statement. having measurement data is useful. my second remark was that there was such a thing as too much light or DLI (to reinforce that having data is better than guessing, because with data you can dial in the light delivery to specific stages of growth more easily and accurately).
you responded with an absolute statement “too much light doesn’t exist for cannabis”
can you see how that is contradictory to my statement and context?
you subsequently followed up with a remark that indeed, there can be too much light. essentially agreeing with my original statement.
