Says it does a flower at 5x5 so for best results I'd grab a second if you can afford it! Remember watts = yield! Get the max you can! Happy growing!

Currently my lights are on a 18/6 schedule, from 6am, until 12am. I want to change their light cycle to start at 4pm and turn off at 10am, so the heat of the light balances the chill of the night. Whats the best way to do this, without triggering flowering, or stressing them.

100W full spectrum enough for 2 plants in a 80x80x160cm tent. Should I get a 300W instead?So, I bought this light, it's a 100W full spectrum grow light. But I think I might've bought it too hastily. I want to ask you guys before I return it though. Do you think I should get a 300W instead? Planning on growing 2 auto plants ScrOGed.

Light Intensity Hi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?

Throw out one plant?Is it productive to kill one plant if the rest of the plants are filling out the room just fine and to promote ventilation and light penetration? I have one plant that is way shorter and behind the others due to genetic problems.

Short period grow Hey fellow growers. So I have an odd question, Is it actually possible to start grow with 12/12 straight away? And how will it affect my plants? Let's say I have 3 autos and one photo. Will I have anything worth the time if I start straight with 12/12 light schedule? Thanks you

Which of the two options do you choose and why: Option 1: 1440w over 40sqft giving 36w per sqft Option 2: 1440w over 48sqft giving 30w per sqft. The difference is an extra 2x4 of grow space. Do i go for more lumens or more plants? This is my first LED setup
