Ttrichomeanswered grow question 5y ago
For growing autos I've had best success at 20 hours of light. 16 hours indoors doesnt even really meet indoor photoperiod veg standards. I found plants under 20 hour light cycles finished a touch faster with notable increase to yield. Plants on 24 light never got better than the 20 hour plants but suffered ailments at a higher frequency. They need lights off hours. I'd say ur best bet is change to 20 hours

16 is odd, we usually use 18/20 or 24... That is all

Keep LED strip or remove?So this is a space tub grow, other than the above head light it has a 3500k led strip running around the sides(around 4 meters) is it worth keeping this lighting? I'm only running a 150 watt growstar led ufo, which is fine for my canopy but my bottom isn't nearly as dense.Week 9

1, When should i go 100% with the light as far as plant age is concerned?

Review this model or help me create a DIY COB plus IR plus UVB grow light.I've very limited variety of lights in this country so this is all I can find. Also there are no suppliers who provide spectrum charts or any temperature values for those lights. My goal is to make it with the best possible light spectrum. Having IR's also will help on cold days.

Light cycle change?Quick and easy one for you fellow green fingured people. I opened my tent to a wonderful growth overnight. As I was doing some more training I had this wonderful surprise. (Ref picture below)
The question I have is they are all autos currently on 18/6 light cycle should I switch?

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower.
I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have
Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷♂️🏼

Temperature ControlHelp! How do I get my temperature down? I have all 3 vents open & 4 fans blowing. My air duct hasn’t come in the mail yet so I can’t set up my exhaust fan yet.

LED light recommendationI am going to need a new LED light to hang from the ceiling. I am looking for a light that has the red/blue spectrum. A dimmer switch would be awesome- the ones I read about that include-seedling, veg and flowering settings sound amazing.
Any recommendations out there?
Thanks inSetup. Lighting
