How to manage grow light height with plants of different sizes?
CRIM_mirstarted grow question 4 years ago
My grow light is suspended (offset from plants) about 10” from the canapy of my two LST’ed plants but only about 6” from my control plant (no LST). Everyone seems happy, and I am not noticing any burns or lack of growth (unless too close can stunt?). Should I rethink the setup?

I agree with the previous comment. You really don’t want to let one go and lst the others, you will have problems with it later on in flowering. The one you let go could go 2-3 times higher then your lst canopy will be. The other option if you really wanna keep your Control plant is to buy another led light and move your lst plants to one sine of the tent together under one light and use the second light over your control plant.

Thanks so much growmies! I think I will try raising the LST’ed planters to be level with the control plant’s canopy. If that doesn’t work, I’ll try the dual light option — I have multiple lights to assist during flowering.

Well if you leave one just growing she could outgrow the others so fast that your setup could become a bit tricky ... also autos dont respond well to supercropping and such.
I would just tie her down as the others i guess...

Led Grow lightsI have a viperspectra xs4000 light 480 watts I am running it at around 25% on the dimmer switch and my lights are about 24" from my canopy. I've noticed some of my pistols wilting and looking stressed. Should I try to move my lights higher or continue dimming them down more?Week 8

Should I switch to 12/12 lighting? - Autoflowers not showing pistils after 5 weeksGrowing five plants (germinated Sept 8) including 3 Anvil and 2 BlackStrap autoflower strains from Mandalorian Genetics. The BlackStraps have been showing pistils since about end of week 3. No Anvil plants are showing pistils. Should I switch the lighting schedule to 12/12?

How can I prevent these light burn issues?It seems these Mars hydro lights are not so great. This is my third grow and having the same issue every time. Red stems where they are exposed to light. Yellowing leaves. But when I move the lights further away, stretching is very bad. Should I just get new light?Setup. Lighting

Affordable but good growlight for small spaceI'm looking for a cheap light to grow one plant, the current one (90w) have just doesn't have enough juice so I'd like to upgrade. I know mars has some good and affordable lights. Any other brands or not so famous brands in Europe that are cheap but good? Tips are welcome!Setup. Lighting

Autoflower light cycles - adjusting mid growAutoflowers can grow in pretty much any light cycle. What are your experiences with changing light cycles mid grow? I am currently around Day 24, running 20/4 but the humidity in my grow cabinet at lights off is very high. How would adjusting to 24/0 affect my plants now? Thanks!Setup. Lighting
