Light doesnt cover every pot
ZigkGrowstarted grow question 6y 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 donât 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.

Lumatek attis 300WGood afternoon Farmers. I have a Lumatek Attis 300w LED and I'm using it at 100% (it includes a dimmer that can be adjusted in 20% increments). I wanted to know if thereâs any problem using it at 100% from the initial phase or if there are specific values for each phase. Thank you very much!Setup. Lighting

amount of sunshine for autos in late flower - open air, outdoor growWe're getting 14-15 hours of strong sunshine a day. Now that I'm late flower, should I move my autos into a spot that will get shade for half of the day? Seems like they may not need to be pounded by this much light/heat at this point and could use more down time.Week 12

light dilemmaWhen shine only with flower light, i reach 20,000 lux units in the buds area. But when i turn both lights on at once, both the growth and bloom spectre, the lux units increase to 65,000. I wonder if the extra growth light will affect the flowers that are already blooming. Thanks.Setup. Lighting

Will my set up work? Is it missing something major?Will my set up work well or am I missing something that can help me out a lot? Wondering if my light is big enough for three plants in a 2x4x6 closet. Are the plant pots adequate size (2.5gallon)? Should I use many nutrients with this autoflower?

The heat problem was back... well, now I had to hang the lamp 40cm higher, just put in new poles and made the tent taller. I hope it's not too bad for the ladies. But there was no other way; the temperature at the highest point of the plant was sometimes 33 degrees.

Added a light, how far should I hang them both from the girls?I have added a Mars Hydro TS600 to my tent along with the Spider Farmer SF1000 in my 2x2, how far should I move them up away from the plants? I'm guessing I don't want them as low as the SF1000 was on its own which was around 15"
Thank you lovely people!

Lights for heat- 24/7 okay?I really need the heat of the lights to keep the inside of my tent warm. To warm the air around the tent 24/7 would be expensive- much more expensive than using the lights all the time. But will this work with 24 hour lights? Will that stress the plants?

11/13 for flowerI need my grow to finish flowering ASAP, due to extenuating circumstances... Iâve read that flower can occur faster under 11/13 with some loss of yield. Does anyone have experience here? How much will yield and flowering time be influenced?Setup. Lighting
