Is it the Time for both Veg/bloom light?

Luna91started grow question 4 years ago

Hiiii My plants are At week 5 and 3 of them have grown very faster, now they are at flowering stage! Can I turn on the BLOOM light with VEG light together? I’ve got 2 lights in my tent, the bigger one is 1200w, and smaller 1000w. And 60cm the height of the lights are okay?

I never switch off the bloom lights, even when vegging, it's more power for the girls. The only reason I might switch it off and only leave the veg lights, is for mothers and cuttings/clones, and just if I want to save on the power bill. They will always grow faster, at any stage, with more watts being delivered, plain math. Keep on the good care and Happy smokes!

Only reason to have veg on is to save power I think, it's better to have both on for faster growth.

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi, Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED Thanks, Mr.STM

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent? I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.

Lights Hi guys! What light should I get? The viparspectra xs1000 or the marshydro ts1000? I intend to grow in a 2x2 space. Would the viparspectra be as bright as the marshydro because its more efficient?

Should I substitute sunlight with a grow lamp on cloudy days?It’s overcast here today and I’m wondering if I should turn my grow lights on to compensate for the lack of direct sunlight. If so, should I drop the intensity to compensate for the additional natural light? Can you overdo the amount of light (not heat) a plant gets?

Swapping lights during flowering Do you guys think that swapping lights at the late flowering stage is going to harm my girls in any way? Been fortunate enough to be able to order myself a Viparspectra xs4000 to replace the v600. And as I understand it should be quite an upgrade. Thanks for any advice!
