Do not switch back your lights to anything more than 12 hours or your photo period plants will respect that photo period and go back to vegging stage. Keep on the great care! Happy smokes!

Increase light hours autoflower My autoflowers are 6 weeks old and showing flowering signs. Can I increase the number of light hours from 17hrs to 20/22/24hrs? Does it cause light stress and can trigger vegetation or make it hermaphrodite?

Lighting Wow. Thank you so much for the reply. I have been playing with LUX meter app and my light. I was bit skeptical about the lumens that I would get from the 15W but as it turns out, it receives well enough ppfd. Still skeptical about the spectrum i am having.

I have a 2x4 tent I think I’m going to flower 2 plants in in a SCROG in 5 gallon pots. I have 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (300W each), is this going to be overkill on lighting?

Advice what lamp for vegging.High guys, My Jack Herer will move soon to a closet with a 60x60 cm surface. For flowering I will use a 180 watt Hans Panel. And I do have 2 led lights at home for vegging. My first option is the Spectrabox. And my second option is the Cree Cob led. What is my best option?

Grow Light for 3x3 tent Looking for a good grow light for a 3x3 flower tent. -Price is not an issue -Low heat since I am venting into my living area. -Even light distribution. I plan on doing a SCROG so having the same light intensity on the edges as the center would be best.

Very technical question - LED wattage vs actual power used My LED is a Phlizon 600w but the power draw is only around 97w at the plug. Perhaps a silly question, but is my diary entry supposed to be 600w or 97w? Looking at other diaries, it looks like yield is expressed as weight/watt and want to be consistent.

My grow tent is sitting in my basement, which normally sits at 10C in the winter, so I set the heat in the room to 18C and the LED and 2 fans heat it to 20.4C in the tent. Anyone have a similar setup but using their grow lights as a heat source? Heating a basement is expensive.
