@GinaS, It is good to hear you are getting a new light. However, it can be quite a shock on the plants to transition from one type of light to another. I would suggest introducing, the new light to your room while your original light is still in and having it dialed down, and slowly dialing up the new light as your plant gets used to it. The amount of PAR our lights put out is measured at certain distances from the plants. So if we have a light capable of 1100 PAR @ 12'' then once we begin to have it higher than that we will lose the numbers the light is able to put out. This is why I strongly suggest getting a good PAR meter to read the amount your light is putting onto your plant in real time & a thermal laser temp gun like the fluke 64 MAX to read the temperatures on the tops of your plants as you move your lights closer. This can sometimes create a little heat pocket that we use fans to blow at the lights to remove from above the plants.
Sungrip light pulleys are great for dialing in our light distances very accurately and easily. It may seem like a lot to get a PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun but at the end of the day we are spending money on nutrients & electricity to grow our beloved medicine and we want to make sure we are getting the most bang for our buck. For that reason, These pieces of equipment will pay themselves off within 1 crop. It is really no problem! Anytime you need help feel free to follow my profile & DM me or legacymarketfarmsUSA
