indoor growing lights

I just added a Giixer 1000W LED Grow Light,
to my 4ft. by 4ft. by 80inches grow tent that had a

VIVOSUN VS1000 LED Grow Light

And I still don’t think I have enough lights as my plants a grow good but don’t fill out like I would like them to and have the buds get bigger but fir the hairs start turning brown.

Now I have a second grow room with the same 2 lights as the first grow tent.
I am thinking of trying to run just one grow tent with all 4 lights that I have 7 plants in right now.

Is all that lighting too much or do plants really need more than all 4 lights together?

I now have a 480 watt in my auto tent and the 300 went to my new photo tent. I have grown as many as 9 plants at a time under my 300 watt with no probs in bud density as you can see

I would start looking at something other than the lighting if you are having issues with bud density…what is your environment like? what kind of soil and nutes are you using?

My environment is tropical as I live on a island about the 16 parallel. And it is dryer than normal for this year. I use mostly bags of miracle grow with worm casings and some vermiculite. in 1 gallon containers. But I am now switching to 2 gallon breathable bags and have bought 4 more grow lights adding two more lights to each of m 4ftx4ft by 78" tall.
