Spider Farmer sf 1000 light height inquiry.
Troy_Farms
started grow question 6y 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

Boost buddy
Ahora con la subida de temperaturas estoy alcanzando los 31-34°C en el indoor. Uso Boost Buddy un generador de CO2 a través de la descomposición de bacterias. Solo con eso ya estaría bien o debería modificar de alguna manera el indoor para no llegar a esas temperaturas? Gracias

Setting up air cooled refactor.
I've got a new air cooled light refractor, a tube like one. I've set it up such as the pic, I'm thinking of putting the extractor where it shows on the pic with the air flow going the way of the arrow, would this be OK? I can't find anything online about setting this one up.

Lights for heat- 24/7 okay?
I really need the heat of the lights to keep the inside of my tent warm. To warm the air around the tent 24/7 would be expensive- much more expensive than using the lights all the time. But will this work with 24 hour lights? Will that stress the plants? Using auto flowers.

qu'elle est le plus important à prendre en compte le nombre de lux ou le PPFD/DLI
lux, ppfd et dli. en faisant j'ai réalisé qu'il était dur d'avoir un ppfd entre 500 et 1000 pour la phase plantule sans dépasser les fameux 7000lux on approchent plutôt les 25000lux si on veux atteindre le ppfd souhaitable pour cette phase. comment faite vous?

Brown spots
What is this? It's affecting newer growth, first or second set of fan leaves off thee top of the colas. Also, this drooping, is this stress from the light? This is the center of my tent, and would appear to only affect tallest colas of this plant.
