Put your hand under the light at the height of your canopy., if your hand feels comfortable under the light for 1 minute then your girls will be fine. Cheers

Anyone have any history with vibrating HPS lamps? Mine keeps making a buzzing/rattling noise. I’m thinking it’s the metal inside rattling on the glass so if I slightly rotate it it may stop? What do you think? Thanks!

12.0v LED strip effectiveness Will this mini led strip help my other weak light out? Or is it wasted energy. I’m still putting the plant in the sun as soon as it gets onto my balcony but while it’s really cloudy and in the evening this is all I’ve got.
