Spider Farmer sf 1000 light height inquiry.
Troy_Farms
started grow question 5y ago
I am growing in a 2x2 spider farmer with a SF 1000, currently the light is 20" and only 80% power. It seems like a powerful light and don't want to overdue it. Should I move the light closer and turning up to 100% power for the rest of flowering?

More power = more yield, Turn it up all the way, watch the distance and heat and you should be right mate, use it for all its worth

Viparspectra LED tips
I’m looking into buying a viparspectra in the future. Which one is best for one plant? I’ve been looking at the 600W one, but I don’t know if that’s the best option for growing a good yield plant in a 80x80x160cm tent.

Switching from veg lights to flower lights (blue to red) ?
With autoflower when do I switch from veg (5000k-6500k)blue light spectrum to flower lights(3000k-4000k) w/ red infrared ? Should I switch lights right when pistils start showing or wait until after the flower stretch when buds are forming?

Can I change my autoflowers light cycle withou reducing their yield significantly?
I am having humidity/mold problems and was thinking of changing the cycle so the grow goes off at noon ( currently it goes off at 1am and its winter and gets real cold with 88% humidity). Even if I stress them, it would be better to not have mold than reducing the yield, right?

Mars hydro 600 lights not going fully out
Hi everyone I'm having issues with my LED mars hydro 600w when the timer is going to 'off' the lights are still very dim, with the plant being a photo period I'm worried the dimmed lights won't let the plant sleep and shock it or keep it in veg. Has anyone had this issue?

NEED SOME ADVICE! Change to LED from HPS? which ones are good for tent size? Which ones are good for good yields?
I've got a 4x4 tent with 8 seedlings in cups but will be in 11L pots. Currently I had a 600w HPS light but my ballast busted today. I have a back up CFL 150W not to mess up the light schedule. Thinking about changing to LED lights, I know it'll be cheaper but I want same yield...
