lately (sometimes) I've noticed my LED doesn't turn completely off unless I take the cord from outlet. I know this is common occurrence with cheaper Chinese LEDs. will I still be able to grow photos with this minimal light in dark period or will it cause them to hermie? thanx

In my early grows I had (still have) the same LEDs. I can confirm that none of my photo seeds ever hermed. Even though you can see the LED's are on you will agree they are extremely dim compared to when the light is normally on. This is not enough light to cause a problem. It's the same as an outdoor grow getting some light from a full moon. Good luck for the grow. I have run many grows under those cheap LED's and as much as your yeild is always going to be lower than a better quality LED, you still get decent bud provided your genetics,temp and air flow ect are stable. So keep it up and happy growing!

"The slightest light source at the site of cultivation can interfere with the development of hemp or trigger unwanted mutations or disease of the plant!" (True) But the timer won't fix it, its because its a chinese led and wasn't properly designed. If you have the time take it out of the outlet everyday. I know of a growmie with this same issue but it only happens on 2 of his chinese leds, the other 2 leds also chinese but of a different supplier don't have this same issue. The timer didn't fix it for him, so he got rid of those 2 bad leds. Best of luck m8

Привет, друг! 👋😇 Скорее всего это проблема не светодиода, а из-за того, что у тебя в доме установлен стабилизатор напряжения электроэнергии! 👆 я бы рекомендовал подключать твою лампу к сети электричества, через электронный таймер, выставив на него по времени программу включения и отключения! 👌 малейший источник света в месте культивации может помешать развитию конопли или спровоцировать нежелательные мутации или болезни растения! 👆 Удачи, друг! ✊😇
