24 or 18 and 6
Been running my lights 24 hours a day on my seedlings. Since I am growing autos, should I be at 18 and 6 now? Or should I keep running them 24 for the first couple of weeks to help veg up little before giving rest? This is my 1st time growing autos and 1st indoor grow in 20 yrs

Changing light cycle on seedlings?
Can I run autoflower seedlings under 24/0 light cycle until they reach mature veg stage, and then move them into an 18/6 light cycle? Iโm starting seedlings in a space tote, then transferring to a large tent to mature. Will the light cycle change have negative consequences?

Panels vs beams
Why is the flowering footprint on a spider farmer sf-4000 5x5 but the Mars fc-4800 is only 3x3 flower with more watts?

Is 500 ppfd on new seedlings ok?
My light dimmer only lowers to 500 ppfd. Iโm starting autoflower seedlings in a space tote before I move them into my perpetual harvest tent. Iโm currently propping the light on its side so that the indirect light only hits around 300-400, as an attempt to reduce light bleaching.

Right lighting at day 6 - fluo or HI as both available
Right lighting at day 6? Very happy that all germination looking good on day 6 from seed. I could either continue with this compact fluorescent bulb (15 cm from tiny first leaf) for another week or two OR switch to full HI 250w immediately (30cm from plant) Thanks!

Doubling light/adding a panel in flower
Adding a second light panel-- any tips? Will it be too much? I've been using a viparspectra p1000 in my 2x3ish closet and it's done me well up to this point. Today I've installed a second led panel (not as good as vipar). Wondered if it'll be too much?
