Will this one be too hot too?

FirstTimerFistTimeYerstarted grow question 4 years ago

Do you guys think this light will be too hot for my tent? Will it be ok, or bad? Maybe 1500w is too much? Or will the plants grow faster? shorturl.at/grtFL I had to make a short link to fit in question

It wont be hot enough. It's a 1500w "equivalent". Which means it's probably 80-100W in truth, and with the price, it's probably not even the right wavelengths. No doubt, this light will work, but it wont work well.

Grams/watt I notice that the grams/watt calculation might be misleading. For example my 2500w light puts out actual 530watts. Should this not be the way its actually calculated or am I the only one who thinks so?

Light source change stress?Can changing light source cause stress to your plant? Yesterday I changed from a CFL to a 150w Mars Hydro LED and this morning she looked a bit "sad". I took the photo straight after watering hence the damp soil.

Can I switch my lighting schedule ?Hello everyone. 1st grow here. I'd like to swap my lighting (automatic plants) from [4am:midnight] to [4pm:noon] just to keep the temperature a little higher at night. Is it doable while not hurting the ladies or should I shift it an hour per day to change the cycle ? Thanks !
