Lumatek attis 300W
Boa tarde Farmers. Tenho um led Lumatek attis 300w e estou a usá-lo com a luz a 100% ( está incluído um dimmer que dá para regular de 20 em 20%). Queria saber se há algum problema usar a 100% desde a fase inicial ou se existem valores específicos para cada fase. Muito obrigado!

LED's wont shut completely off
Lights seem to go on a "standby mode" instead of being all the way shut when timers switch them off. Should I buy some other timers? These were brand new, cheap ones though and both the same. Lights are HLG 600 RSPEC and both did this.

Extra belichting
Hallo . Ik zit in de derde week bloei van mijn royal gorilla planten ze staan onder een hps lamp van 600 watt als ik nu nog een extra lamp van 400 watt zou plaatsen zou dat de opbrengst vergroten of een verspilling van energie . Groeten Gorilla

Switching from veg lights to flower lights (blue to red) ?
With autoflower when do I switch from veg (5000k-6500k)blue light spectrum to flower lights(3000k-4000k) w/ red infrared ? Should I switch lights right when pistils start showing or wait until after the flower stretch when buds are forming?

3000 watt power use
This is my first time using such a powerful light in my opinion, 3000 watts seems overkill but that's what i want. The question IS, is it better to have 1-2 plants under the 3000 watt or worth it to manage 4 at a higher distance? Cheers. Don't keep techniques in mind.

Hello, I am using a viparspectra par1200 which has the veg and bloom adjustment knobs on autoflowers. My question is, should I only be using veg during veg and bloom during bloom? Or can I just turn that sucker on full blast the whole time? Thanks

Grow Light distance
Does it matter what heights I have my grow light at as long as my pfd is where I want it? For example could I have it closer and less power or do I want it further with more power. Feel like it would be better for the light the less power being used.
