Grow distance off a Spider Farmer 100w

RelaxedReggiestarted grow question 5y ago

Does anyone know how close a plant can grow to a Quantum Board like a Spider Farmer 100w? I'm using a small tent to veg (85cm high) and a large tent for flower (200cm high) for security reasons. Will the Spider Farmer 100w burn the plants if they grow too close to the light?

Any light will burn your plants when it's too close. Just check the manufacturers guidelines with a quick Google. I use the sf2000 and the marsts1000 and keep them roughly 45-55 cm away in veg and 25-35cm away in flower, but watch then closely, daily or weekly to see if the light is effecting the plant at the distance you have it.

I grow with a 100w led full spectrum that is at a fixed distance. The typical distance from the soil to the light is around 71cm. The only time I’ve ever had issues with burn is when the plants are within an inch or two of the light and even then it’s very minimal. Check a couple of my diaries to get a good idea!

Lighting coverage Will my viparspectra xs1500 have enough coverage once these plants get larger? Or will I need supplemental lighting? And if I do need more, am I better off getting the larger model, or just getting another identical unit so that I have 2?

Swapping lights during flowering Do you guys think that swapping lights at the late flowering stage is going to harm my girls in any way? Been fortunate enough to be able to order myself a Viparspectra xs4000 to replace the v600. And as I understand it should be quite an upgrade. Thanks for any advice!

Mars hydro 600 lights not going fully out Hi everyone I'm having issues with my LED mars hydro 600w when the timer is going to 'off' the lights are still very dim, with the plant being a photo period I'm worried the dimmed lights won't let the plant sleep and shock it or keep it in veg. Has anyone had this issue?
