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!

Veg lighting approach? Switching from cfl to hps?
I started my second grow a couple weeks ago with a 130w cfl in my 1m veg cupboard. I’m thinking I will make the switch to a 250w hps soon. I don’t want to overheat the space. Do you think this is a good strategy? I’ll flower the autos in my 1.4m tent with 600w hps.

Best grow light for a 3.5x3.5?
I'm disappointed with my last yield and belive its cause of the light. Want to invest in a better product. Which one do you think will produce the biggest yield with 4 autos in a 3.5×3.5 feet wide tent? - Lumateck Attis 300W - Mars Hydro TSW 2000 300W I want the biggest buds

light on humidifier :(
okay I think I might have fucked up (lol). I bought a new humidifier. And I didn’t realize it has a light in it. And i run it in the ten over the whole night. It’s not powerful at all but it’s also not just a little led. Do u recon my plant will be okay. I covered it now.

Too much lighting?
Too much/too many lights? Getting all popcorn buds/low yields. Getting a light meter this week. Going through by process of elimination on how I can get better grows. Read the manufactures instructions, but not good with technical electrical/lighting terms. Thank you.

First questions about light
Since I'm using a chinese 50W led grow lamp , what is the right distance from the plant? I'm doing 18-6, but since she looks little for her age, would be useful to turn 24-0? many thanks for your help

using both veg and bloom switch toggeled to on with led light during flower question
i was watching a video on youtube and the person was using an led light which had separate toggle switches for bloom and veg and during flowering of autoflowers he had both switches on and was wondering if that is better to have both on and if so is it only good for autoflowers?
