Light doesnt cover every pot
ZigkGrowstarted grow question 4 years ago
So i've got 2 plants under one cfl lamp and i observed that that 1 girl is reclining to the right.
As i see my Cfl this girl is standing right below the plastic part of the cfl and obviously gets less sun.
How can i fix this? Changing place my pots every day will do the job?

Your lamp is too close to your plants.
And is ok that little bending, rotate the plants and the pot can help , also raise the lamp to get a better coverage and don’t stress the plants

Truth is fellow grower is that i use 4ft t5 light fixtures my first grow before switching to LED and i can tell you most cfl bulbs are 50-55 watts per bulb. One dual light fixture can see 2 plants thru entire life cycle but the low intensity lighting will affect yield. In reality i ended up getting 3 dual cfl fixtures bc 100 watts wasnt doing it. After jumping the intensity to 300 watts the plants took off. Have a grow diary using the 3 cfl fixtures. Hope this helps brother.

what is correct light schedule for indoor germination and seedling, and then transplant outdoors?I plan to grow a photoperiod plant outdoors from spring to fall, but the germination and seedling stages will be done indoors. For the indoor part, can I use a setup with 18 hour light schedule? Or should it be 12 hours? I don't want to trigger flowering when I put it outside.Setup. Lighting

raise lights during stretch?Should I raise the lights during flower stretch to maintain the same distance from light source to canopy? I notice that my plants continue to get taller than most. I know the stretch is natural, but I'm wondering if constantly raising the lights with growth is the right approachWeek 12

Contemplating putting 2 plants outside. I have 8 in a 3x3 with Mars hydro tsw2000. It’s pretty tight in there. What do you guys think? Is 8 too many for the size and light? Or should I just leave them as is? I think the the pots are 3 possibly 5 gallon.
