Do I need more light?
MrGreenManstarted grow question 4y ago
Hey everyone, someone said that I need a better light but I though my plants were growing well? My light is a decent one, cost over 100, 190W. I thought my plants looked like they like the light I got, anyone see any reason that they need more? I stunted the smaller two btw

I mean better lights give bigger yields but your plants are looking fine (even if a bit stressed on the pictures😜) so dont worry and just finish it with that one...
If your unsure you could put the 2 shortys a bit higher up that prob. would solve most light related ,,issues,, here.
Cheers😋

For further context, they didn’t stretch as seedlings and remained short nodes until the big one stretched. Good colour on all leaves and the smaller two I stunted weeks ago and they’re now recovering. I don’t see any signs of lack of light but someone say I need more which I find hard to believe. Obviously better quality light is ideal, but this is my first grow

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?

Irregular light schedule.I am thinking about giving her 24h lights a few days a week and then go back to 18h. Just to give her a boost. Will this irregular light schedule harm her?
My first thought is that it doesn’t matter much since she is an auto, however I know that plants love balanced environments.Week 3

Hey growmies✌️💚, so I finally have a PAR meter. With all my 3 LEDs on at the lowest setting I reach like 77 umol max. What would you recommend for seedlings that small like in the picture? I saw seedling/clone 100 - 300. So just wondering how much for my little flowers? 😁✌️

UV LED slowing down growth? Sorry previous question without the question!The plant has a rectangular area in the middle where it is not growing as quickly. The difference is almost 10cm. I suspect the lamp. Could it be that the centrally installed UV LEDs are causing this? They should grow more inside because of more light.

Hight ProblemsI’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants.
My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Started the plants off with 60 watts. Increased to 100 watts today with a 20/5 schedule. Could I increase to the full 150 watts already or should I give them a few days with 100? Thanks in advance for any advice. It’s my first indoor grow with this setup and I’m still learning :)

Stretchy seedlings...worried!Hi, I have 5 seedlings on day 7. 2 of them are going fine but the three from ditch passion were very stretchy though. Likely due to having the light to far away. Take a look, any advise would be great. Cheers all!
