If your increasing the light only np. Just don't give more than 10 hrs of darkness at any time when changing schedules. Happy Growing! 🤟😜

Has anyone ever moved a plant from HID lights to LED during flower ? Keen to hear from your experience as it’s looking likely that I’ll need to do exactly that in the near future .

Fluoro and LEDs together
In addition to the 24W T5 Fluoro, I will be adding an 80W LED Lamp 12" from the tops. This lamp has 3 spectrum settings: Red&Blue, Warm White, and all 3. Which setting is best for veg and how will it affect the plants by having both types of lighting? Thanks

So is there really any benefit to give a long period of darkness before harvest? Once again, I'm on the fence with this...

Effect of light only? Really?
These girls same strain (strawberry cough photo), born on same day, same medium same feeding except the one on the right was removed from the light about 3 weeks ago and put outside. I thought dark green from nutes, seems the light alone makes such a difference? 45 watt LED

300w COB CREE Distance?
I've put my 6 seedlings under a 300W COB CREE UFO light, atm is a 30cm distance from them, I do hope is not too close. I've only a 140cm height and more would be problematic to manage in the long period.

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light

When did the flowering start?
The LED panel, after switching (Ts600 Mars Hydro), stayed slightly on even during the dark hours. I managed to fix the issue, but I'm not sure how to count the flowering period. The plant had shown some differentiation, a few pistils, and a bit of stretching. What do you think?

What do you growmies think of these lights? They're LED's, I have 2 of these going and a few other lights. These though, I don't understand much about electrical info. My green seems to like them ok but are they good? I know to the experts out there, this probably seems dumb, but
