2x2growingstarted grow question 5y ago
What ppfd do you guys recommend for plants in veg?
I’m finding that my light can be too strong at max power even at a 24” distance.

250 PPF for seedlings
400 to 600 for veg
600 to 850/900 in flower.

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

Led mounted on side wall instead of topSo I'm thinking about to build a pc grow box, just for seedlings. When they start to be bigger I'll move them to bigger grow box. I have a spare grow light but it's to wide to mount in top of grow box. So I was wondering if I could mount it on the side wall?Setup. Lighting

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 :)Setup. Lighting

Right lighting at day 6 - fluo or HI as both availableRight lighting at day 6? Very happy that all germination looking good on day 6 from seed. I could either continue with this compact fluorescent bulb (15 cm from tiny first leaf) for another week or two OR switch to full HI 250w immediately (30cm from plant) Thanks!Setup. Lighting
