Without an air cooled hood the light to canopy distance should be between 12 to 18 inches (30 to 45 cm)

Heya!
a 600W I would say should be no further than 20" away during flower. That would be around 700par according to most 600W HPS manufacturers.
Lowest I would go is 12" with gooood ventilation.
Cheers,

Additional lighting in flower???I’m planning on putting another 2 x 600wLED (blurpul colour type) alongside my current 2 x1000w led Cree cob lights. I have them spare and was hoping this will help with flower/thc production??? Is it worth putting them in or just wasting electricity. Any help appreciated 🤙✌️🎄Week 21

Should I dim my TS1000? Ts1000When using two lights in a small space should I be worried about to much light? The plant is mature and is about to transition to flower, I’m just curious what is too much if any. The TS 1000 is dimmable the sf1000d is not. Lights are 18” at the moment

Mars hydro 600 lights not going fully outHi everyone
I'm having issues with my LED mars hydro 600w when the timer is going to 'off' the lights are still very dim, with the plant being a photo period I'm worried the dimmed lights won't let the plant sleep and shock it or keep it in veg. Has anyone had this issue?Setup. Lighting

Lower lighting at switch to 12/12?Do you typically want to lower your lighting when you switch to 12/12?
I'm a little confused about what is meant when they say to have a 12" light distance for flowering and 18" for veg. Does that mean lower to 12" at the switch to 12/12, or just maintain a min 12" distance?

Tent too hot?I added two blurple lights - I'm not sure how much they're helping growth but they are definitely making the tent hotter - about 5 degrees F. I have a fan blowing at the bottom of the tent and at top over the lights but I'm worried that it might be too hot. Should I ditch them?
