Light doesnt cover every pot
ZigkGrowstarted grow question 5y 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.

Breaking light cycle during floweringDoes breaking the dark cycle after half an hour of dark will stress the plant? I just opened the box 30 minutes after the light went down during the first week of flowering. Can this make my plants hermaphrodite?Setup. Lighting

Just ordered a 150W Quantum Board, can I swap my Blurple UFO mid grow to the new board? Is it possible to increase flower size this late into a grow?My Blurple apparently uses 230W actual draw but is advertised as 600W. If that 230W value is correct, does that suggest my new, much more expensive QB is not as good? Will it make a difference to the plants health? What are the benefits from the QB? Thanks!5y ago

Nutrient burn, Light burn, or Phos Def? red stems purple bruises,Noticed red lines leaking red into the leaves with purple bruising, and the starter bottom leaves seem to be turning yellow, with the leaves above looking dark green with spots. Is this signs of light burn or nutrient toxicity? And is it lacking phosphorus or just the strain gen?

Light scheduleI am doing an outdoor grow and also have a grow room set up for germination. Outside is only getting about 14 hours of light, is it beneficial to bring my girls in under my LED's for 4 hours to make sure they're getting a full 18 hours of light? then bring them back outsideSetup.

Right lighting at day 6 - fluo or HI as both availableRight lighting at day 6? Very happy that all germination looking good on day 6 from seed. I could either continue with this compact fluorescent bulb (15 cm from tiny first leaf) for another week or two OR switch to full HI 1500W immediately (30cm from plant) Thanks!Setup. Lighting

Does anyone have experience with colas that have been severely light deprived, yet still have trichs?My ghost nug grew up on the side of the tent blocked from light. She has trichs, looks super light yellow (see pics). My question is, wouldn't this be desirable? Less chlorophyll to wait on before smoking? Has anyone tried to maybe light deprive parts of their colas?
