Light pointed at white wall for supplemental lighting?

mexycomebackstarted grow question 6y ago

Does it makes sense to have a small 300W COB LED pointed at the white flat painted wall for supplemental lighting? If I point the light directly at the plants I would surely burn them but have no space to move back.

Yo uso esos cobs pequeños para dar luz lateral directa a las plantas, algunos los acerco hasta 10cm y todo va bien.

plus, you are doubling the distance, but that may be the reason you do it...

Not the most efficient, but if angling it at the plant from side is too close, you getting post the light (~90%) off one bounce. 81% second bounce...

When to turn the light on after sprouting?We have a sprout! Tropicana Banana sprouted between 10pm last night and noon today. Can I turn the light on now, and start the 18-6 schedule tonight or will it fuck it up if I turn the light back off at midnight tonight to begin the 18-6 schedule?

I need help choosing a better light for my single plant microgrow!H50cm W37.5cm L57cm Now using 1 household 13w Phillips LED 2700K for flower, a 120w CFL for veg and I use a cheap 20w dual Spectrum LED that I'm sure does almost nothing. See pics for convo with led sales guy. Is the height really that much of an issue with the light intensity?

Grow light question I bought a cheap light by KingLED. It’s only 100 Watts and I’m unsure if it’s enough for one plant. The light has 2 switches, one for veg and one for flower. Should I always have both on since it will be an autoflower?

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

How can I prevent these light burn issues?It seems these Mars hydro lights are not so great. This is my third grow and having the same issue every time. Red stems where they are exposed to light. Yellowing leaves. But when I move the lights further away, stretching is very bad. Should I just get new light?
