Which light for a newbie with limited height?
WeedSmellerstarted grow question 5y ago
I only have 3ft of height to work with in my grow area. I have been looking at the 2x2ft and 2x3ft tents. Which light will give me the best quality buds? I've been looking at Mars Hydro and Spider Farmer.

Hello.. Hope you are well.. I use both.. In 1 tent i use sf600x2 and in my other i use sp150x2.. Personally i prefer the mars brand.. Apparently the efficiency is a bit better on the sf's but i have noticed they produce more heat as they dont have a cooling rack like the sp.. Also the sp150 are very well built lights,u cant go wrong with 2 or 3 of these bad boys in a small grow space.. Stay safe n gud luck with ur gardening activities.. 👍🍀

I like my Mars Hydro TS1000 very much. You can remove the ballast and mount it outside the tent to reduce heat. Also with it's slim design you could mount it virtually to the roof as long as you've got some fan hitting it for cooling.... Never used the SF products but I have heard good things.... Hope this helps. Happy growing ✌️👊

Lamp for houseplants?My neighbours fiancé yesterday evening dropped by and gave me the lamp on the photograph, I have no users manual, but I understood it is for houseplants. I wonder if it is of any use and how I can use it. Whenever the sun shines I will put the plant in the sun of course

Can you use a 450 watt white led light to start seedlings? If so what distance should the light be and when should I make it closer? The reason I am asking this is because I don’t like transplanting autos as they are fragile to transplanting from what I’ve looked up

Set Up TentHow should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?

Veg/Bloom switchMy plants are 5 weeks from germination, I have flowers and buds forming but I am starting to worry they aren't growing as they should (I want them bigger). I have had my light veg and bloom switches on throughout.
Would you recommend I change over to just bloom switch now?

For the indoor part, can I use a setup with 18 hour light schedule? Or should it be 12 hours? I don't want to trigger flowering when I put it outside.Setup. Lighting
