Yes, especially because you have the bags over the seeds. You want the lights on so humidity will be created! Good luck & happy halloweed 👻😎👍

Lamp distance from seedlings? PPFD uploaded in this weeks photos.
How far away I should have my lamp from my week old seedlings? I think it has something to do with the PPFD for my lamp (TS600), but I have no idea what it means. The lamp is set right at the very top of my tent now and is 32 inches (81cm) away. See photos in week 1.

what are you suggestions on Home-Made LEd grow lights and also if you can reccomend cheap alternatives please how i can make this work?
Hello there, fellow growers. I am facing trouble finding a LED grow light in my country right now. I saw a couple of DIY ideas to make a homemade LED grow light using a panel and LED Strips. Can I grow using my own grow light? how many watts of led do I need for 3x3 space?

MARS HYDRO TS600 LIGHT STILL ON WHEN TIMER SWITCHES OFF
it is a known problem i found 2 forum posts discussing it. Different timers have been tried but it always remains the same. Someone said with a mechanical timer the problem is solved I will try that as soon as I have one. In any case, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Have 2 1200 watt 2 switch LED lights at 19 inches. Currently using just Vegetation switch (assuming each switch is 600 watts) Seeking advice on light distance and if I should use both switches, Vegetative and Flowering. What is best without doing harm?

Height Difference when growing different strains in one tent
Im afraid my Gorilla will outgrow the Lemon Cherry significantly in height, will that be a big problem? or will the lemon cherry maybe catch up a bit in full flower so the difference in light intensity wont be that big? both same age. Spiderfarmer SF-1000 (2024 Version)

Maximum
I have the LM-3100 Light Meter app on my iPhone using a piece of paper to diffuse like it instructs but I am not sure what the optimal Lux/FC should be. Specifically for LED lights, it is confusing. I have a viaspectra P2590z what’s the max/optimal light?

Lights. Please explain to a newbie
How much light does a seedling need? How many watts? Is it better to have one bulb but closer to a plant, or 4 bulbs and higher from a plant? Does it matter how many plants are under the light if they don't shade each other? Do plants "steal" rays so its better to have 1 plant?

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?
Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower. I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷♂️🏼

Side lights ?
Would my plants benefit from these extra lights hanged to the side? Photos included of light and how they look. Above are two SF1000D lights. Curious if these will help the under growth or if it's just a waste? Thanks for any info anyone can share . Happy growing!
