Hello, yes that can help speed up development. Be careful not to stress her by moving her from outside, under lights, to outside lights... that can be stressful for her.

Yellowing leaves & tips curling down on 14th day. Coco / Autopot / Hesi / Mars Hydro fc-1500 Would gladly use some help with my first grow 🙏 2 main reasons come to mind after googling: 1. I overwatered thinking it's hard to do since I'm using the Air dome. 2. Too intense light. Was checking a lot of growers that actually grow 24/0 and went for it 75% 40cm.

Duda sobre HPS y HQI en espacio pequeño y de madera Hey friends, I'm new to this growing thing. I have a space like this: Height - 1.60m; Depth - 0.45m; Width - 0.48m. That's part of the inside of my closet in my room, so it's made of wood. Can I set up an HPS and HQI lamp in this space? And what about the heat?

Best Lamps Dear fellow growers! I kindly ask you to give me strong advice on LED lighting. Specifically, which COMPANY and MODEL is currently THE BEST. For plants, of course - not for the wallet. Price and economic considerations are also important to me, but not the most. Thanx & regards

Started the plants off with 60 watts. Increased to 100 watts today with a 20/5 schedule. Could I increase to the full 150 watts already or should I give them a few days with 100? Thanks in advance for any advice. It’s my first indoor grow with this setup and I’m still learning :)
