You can try and aluminium foil it's kind of cheap, for sure your light will reflect and also touch the bottom of the plant and the new leafs, or you can opt and buy some leds strips are really chep and works grate

Is it better to have one light unit that covers the full area of the tent or use multiple smaller ones? Im using 2 small leds. Is it better to have the ability to dim the lights or just have one power of intensity?

Voost VST240
Looking for a good budget light for a 4x4 grow. The Voost VST240 looks like a fantastic spec but no real information out there that I can find. Any users? Also considering a Migrow Array when the bigger version hits the market.

Is 500 ppfd on new seedlings ok?
My light dimmer only lowers to 500 ppfd. I’m starting autoflower seedlings in a space tote before I move them into my perpetual harvest tent. I’m currently propping the light on its side so that the indirect light only hits around 300-400, as an attempt to reduce light bleaching.

Veg or Bloom mode for Autoflower?
Hiya Folks 😊 As I'm growing an autoflower should I be using the bloom setting on my LED light instead of veg setting? It's only a 200w system and I'm growing in a 3'x3'x6' tent. My plant has just done 28 days from seed!! Cheers 😉

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!
