400 watt hps can be kept much closer than 600 and 1000 watt. Just use the back of your hand and if its comfortable at the distance you want it from your girls, then your plants will be fine. Cheers

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

Is my LED too close or too far from my plant?So this is my first grow and it feels like she’s growing a bit slow. Currently at day 10. Distance was 62 cm. The LED is 100W. Now the distance is 57 cm. I’m wondering if I’m just impatient. Is this distance appropriate? How is the growth looking?

Different lightsHello people, hope you all doing fine.
So, I have 3 different light models, I´ve been using them individually for plants.
I use only autos and adjust the light distance individually.

Add on lightingHey Growdiaries. I’m about to start my 2nd grow but I’m not happy with my Viparspectra 300 for flower. I want a cheap add on for the flower stage? CFLs look like a cheap, low energy use, add on as I’m only growing two plants in a small w3xd2xh3 ft tent. Any advice plz & 🙏🏼Setup. Lighting
