Quantum Board 240W distance

burnoutdevstarted grow question 5y ago

Hi, I have LM301B LED Board 240W and can't decide optimal distance from the plant because Amazon product page says 18-24 inch for veg and I also found article says 28-36inch is for veg. I can only measure lux using my phone. http://tiny.cc/Article240 http://tiny.cc/Amazon240

Hey buddy :-) with the low wattage you can get closer to the plant 👍 I always say every 100 watts about 10 cm away 👍😎

young : 5 000–7 000 lux Vegetative : 15000 -50000 Flowering : 45 000–65 000 lux So 75 000lux is good spot.

Hey, I cannot find much information about your light. I can give you some guidelines, I've been been using cbx3590 at 250W and keeping them at 40cm (16inch). I found this video (https://youtu.be/FrZxbwGFdso) for you about a guy using a similar light then yours, you might be able to determine the correct height from there. Try to experiment a bit just use some logic.

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Because ur plants are young I'd keep them at least 2ft(24inch) away from her delicate tiny canopy.. As she gets bigger u can bring them closer.. Wait till she develops her 5set fan leaves(usually after 1st or 2nd set of 3's) then bring light down max 6inch..she wont stretch for the light n if it feels warm above ur plants canopy place a small oscillating fan just above.. Hope she turns out well.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

Gradually prepare for the "SWITCH"Hello all! What is your way to prepare plants for the switch in terms of light? Do you reduce hours of light slowly until the day of the "switch"? Do you gradually push up the power of the lamp? At this time i am giving my ladies 24 hours of light, lamp at about 25% of power.

Temperature VS More Light which is better for buds size and potency Should I continue to use two LEDS if temps are reaching 87f during flower (day 1) or just move plants more towards center of tent and use one LED for better temperatures (75f) (only growing two plants). lights are 1000w bestiva and are in a tent that is 24"x48"60".
