Roxie_xxstarted grow question 6y ago

So I’ve got my lights on a 18:6 schedule but the way I’ve done it tube ineffectively made the plants nocturnal lol so I was wondering how can I swap the schedule so the lights are on in the day not at night ? Haha

With the age of your plants you should be able to just swap over as you want - if you wanted you could give 24 hours of light then just change to your new schedule the following day.

Hey, if you change the time, you shouldn't be too stressed out. But I would leave it at one time :-) not make it more open. Keep it up 🙏🏻👍😎

Should I substitute sunlight with a grow lamp on cloudy days?It’s overcast here today and I’m wondering if I should turn my grow lights on to compensate for the lack of direct sunlight. If so, should I drop the intensity to compensate for the additional natural light? Can you overdo the amount of light (not heat) a plant gets?

Anyone have any history with vibrating HPS lamps? Mine keeps making a buzzing/rattling noise. I’m thinking it’s the metal inside rattling on the glass so if I slightly rotate it it may stop? What do you think? Thanks!

Grams/watt I notice that the grams/watt calculation might be misleading. For example my 2500w light puts out actual 530watts. Should this not be the way its actually calculated or am I the only one who thinks so?

Light distance and power with a 205W Sanlight LED Sanlight told me I should use it dimmed at 80% and 45cm when in flowering. I was aiming to reach lower buds so I put it at 100% and 50cm from the upper buds. The tips of the leaves are slightly burned but no bud bleaching yet like my last run (at 100% 45cm). What's best ? Thx !

About the 1200w light So I did already in fact order the 1200w led light for the 60x60x140 before asking for advise on it, which was stupid of me. Is it possible to use the light with the door open and fans to decrease hot points?
