24 or 18 and 6
Been running my lights 24 hours a day on my seedlings. Since I am growing autos, should I be at 18 and 6 now? Or should I keep running them 24 for the first couple of weeks to help veg up little before giving rest? This is my 1st time growing autos and 1st indoor grow in 20 yrs

How to measure lumens of a full spectrum LED light.
Since a lux meter only measures certain spectrums of light, how do I use a lux meter to determine the right height of my full spectrum grow light? I have it at the recommended distance but I have signs of light stress. Bleaching of some upper leaves. I moved it up 4 more inches?

Far red Led
Anyone else also use far red for emerson effect and get extra night hours really see a difference too? For sure they seem to be praying a lot harder after setting it up. They sure seem to be finishing faster.

Back To 24 Hour Light - Auto Flowers
My autos switched from 24 hour light to 16 about 2 weeks ago to see if it would help make them bloom faster. Can I turn them back onto 24 hours or could that mess things up? I would like the most amount of light time. They should have 2 more weeks left

Boost buddy
Ahora con la subida de temperaturas estoy alcanzando los 31-34°C en el indoor. Uso Boost Buddy un generador de CO2 a través de la descomposición de bacterias. Solo con eso ya estaría bien o debería modificar de alguna manera el indoor para no llegar a esas temperaturas? Gracias

Distante between LED and plants.
The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.

Grow light height in flowering
I have a lumatex ATS 200w led, I've it raised to max height but I've still only 10 inches of clearance from the canopy. It's flowering now and upward growth has stopped as buds are starting to fill out, will I be ok with this short distance?

Are there any recommendations for a light schedule for autoflowering?
I leave them at 24 hours. I start with the seedlings at 18000 Lux and increase it till the 4th week. After the 4th week I have all my lights at full power and the top buds have around 55.000 to 90.000 Lux.

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.
