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!

Trying to get setup rightI know I prob need to get a nicer light and ditch all the crap lights but for now I have what I have. Perhaps after some success I may be able to get a new light to replace all of them. But how far should it be? 2 feet above rockwool cube? And what watts per plantSetup. Lighting

Is your machine helper leaking light?Everyone has their ACs and dehumidifiers and whatnot machines in the grow space. Are you covering every little light of those machines in the flowering chamber? Many hermies will be avoided with some aluminium tape. Stay safe, cover those lights and grow ganja!

Changing Lighting ScheduleThe days on the plants are since planting, so i was going to keep the vegetative light schedule until 5 weeks since planting, then start moving towards a 12/12.
Is it even optimal for an autoflower to have a traditional 12/12 lighting schedule during flowering?

Lights airstone c02What light to plant distance would you set it at? The only test I've done is at 25 inches its stable at 80°f and 75% humidity. When I lower it to 18 inches, the tent read 85°f and 73 humidity.
Other question I have is what's your favorite air stone(disk)?
Lastly, add c02 yes/no

Lamp for houseplants?My neighbours fiancé yesterday evening dropped by and gave me the lamp on the photograph, I have no users manual, but I understood it is for houseplants. I wonder if it is of any use and how I can use it. Whenever the sun shines I will put the plant in the sun of course

Hi, can anyone tell me if it's normal, or why those lower branches are stretching so much? I have only one 50w cob light. Which apparently produces equivalent to 150watt... Is that enough? I have only one plant and a very small grow box. Thanks for any advise :)

ViparSpectra P600 or P1000?I'm just starting with a small setup (40x40x100cm tent), only one small plant at the time, but want to be able to grow proper quality in long-term. I suppose the biggest difference between the two lights is the 930 vs 1006 umol/m2/s? Any advise appreciated!Setup. Lighting
