1st grow

@Puffer_Bill, cheers dude

@Tubbzy, 250W closest 10″ (25cm) sunlight 12″ (30cm) furthest 14″ (35cm) 10 inches is gonna be rough, I keep a dimable 600w MH set at 300w at 14-15" during veg and cheat higher when in doubt in flower. I see a lot of folks throwing far too much light on the subject IMO :) If the plants are unstressed they will produce more, or so I see it. Canopy flatness can a bothersome problem fought it last grow will not do so again so I train the crap out of everything with LST. Ya try your best and hope ya did right :)

@rhodes68, I'm using a 250w hps duel spectrum light aprox 10inch from canopy had to raise two of my plants to match the height of my gorilla glue have experimented with light height and experienced bleaching at 6" so 10" seems to be ok .I've now brought some garden wire and have bent branches away from main stem for better light penetration

@Tubbzy, Well I stick with Fast Buds because well they just give the most dependable yield and the genetics are stable(ish). Spend a lot of time here and other sites looking at what people are doing and how it turns out. Looking at Octopots now to further increase yields (www.youtube.com/watch What kind of Light? 250 could be anything but I assume LEDs? 250w in veg is plenty its flower where the light really shines (heheh get it?) 250 true watts in LED is ok (30w per sq foot rule 80x1.8 = 12sq feet = 360w in flower DEPENDING on how much is covered in canopy) but if its HID its going to affect yield so hows the setup? Light height/heat is paramount here I have a link that may help. https://www.growweedeasy.com/how-far-grow-lights

@Tubbzy,true, but is way better to have a slight defiency than an excess
