Build Notes
A 4x4 needs REAL power — 500W light + 100W accessories = 600W continuous
SCROG is almost required — without it, plants compete and waste light
Heat is a real concern: 4x4 needs strong exhaust + cool room temp
Consider an AC Infinity Controller 69 Pro to automate fan + humidifier
Yields up to 2 lbs with experienced growers, 1-1.5 lbs for first-timers
