PazzoKGBstarted grow question 5y ago

I am using a Dr Meter LX1330B model I barrow from a friend. I am running at 12 inches from canopy (no real canopy yet) my LUX meter is reading 300+/- a few points. How can I know the optimal LUX meter readings for best growth at any growing stage?

Hi there! Heres a quick guide for lux meter! https://www.growweedeasy.com/lux-meter I think there must be some kind of scaling in your meter so 300 is really like 30,000 or something like that cos 300 is really low or is it PAR or PPFD?

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

Auto and regular plants in one box.I got an auto plant in a box, waiting for flowering to start very soon. Light schedule 20/4. Now I planted a new photoperiodic seed in a same box. What should I do, keep the 20/4 light schedule before the auto plant finishes and after change to 18/6? Or change it right now?

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks

Hello fellow growers :D thx a lot Firstly, is the reason why my plants (especially cookies) are very slightly curling/folding at the ends of the leaves because the LED is too powerful?(Reason to be worried?) Secondly, should I start adding nutrients? Just 1/4 of Bio-grow for now?

Cloning area lighting I have a 4x4 tent that has 2 plants growing, and 1/4 of it I wanna create a little box that light cant get out if for clones to grow, and set an LED in there. If I take clones, set my main plants to flower, takes 4-6 weeks, how much light is needed for the clones to survive?

Anyone have any history with vibrating HPS lamps? Mine keeps making a buzzing/rattling noise. I’m thinking it’s the metal inside rattling on the glass so if I slightly rotate it it may stop? What do you think? Thanks!
