Joelski
started grow question 6y ago
The Veg side of my light went out today. All I had to add was an led shop light. What do I do while I wait for warranty service?

White light with 6500K color temperature is great. The key is to get as many watts as possible. 18 Watts LED tubes can be rigged up easily enough. A few of these tubes will get you by in a pinch.

Marshydro ts600 for a 50x50x100
Hi quick question, Purchasing 50x50x100 tent Will the marshydro ts600 be ideal for this yes just shy of 2x2. Im aware the ts1000 is better and has dimmable option but wouldn't that be too powerful for my little 2x2 with a height if only 100cm? Will be from (marshydroled.co.uk)

Light distance and when to top?
I'm using a 300W LED. What distance should I keep the lights at now that I've transplanted and the plants are doing well? I'm thinking 24" and then move up as they grow until flipping. Also, when should I top? I've read that waiting for 6-8 nodes is the right way to go.

Light distance and power with a 205W Sanlight LED
Sanlight told me I should use it dimmed at 80% and 45cm when in flowering. I was aiming to reach lower buds so I put it at 100% and 50cm from the upper buds. The tips of the leaves are slightly burned but no bud bleaching yet like my last run (at 100% 45cm). What's best ? Thx !

Anyone used the Phlizon Cree COB 2000w lights? Iโm running two in a 8โx4โ under a scrog net. 5 weeks into veg but nowhere near where they should be. Used only the COBs in veg as some suggested but had to put on full blast today and hope for some speedy growth before I flower them

23 hours light per day?
Iโm running 4 autos in a 4x4 tent on 20 hours of light per day. Iโm thinking about the possibility of changing the light hours to 23 hours a day and 1 dark hour. Iโm currently on week 8/9, Iโm expecting it to finish roughly 12/14 weeks from birth. Any thoughts on this growers?

Light pointed at white wall for supplemental lighting?
Does it makes sense to have a small 300W COB LED pointed at the white flat painted wall for supplemental lighting? If I point the light directly at the plants I would surely burn them but have no space to move back.

I'm confused. For the first 3w I used LED as instructed 30-40cm, I had ~43cm,100%dim, everything was fine. When the bloom started yellow claws appeared and still there, maybe a bit worse, with 53cm and 75%dim. Mostly on BPP, one more plant showed her claws today aswell. ๐

Opinions on progress
So this is my first solo grow in a completely new setup (previously only grown in collaboration with a friend). Started off with a cheap blurple light. Very slow start then upgraded to a mars hydro TS1000 2 weeks prior to flowering. Topped at 35 days How is she looking?
