IsseyBukkakestarted grow question 3 years ago
Hi there,
I currently have 9 1 day old Auto seedlings under a 400w FL lamp with 2 broken outputs so its really running at 300w, which is 18" away from the seedling
I also have a 600W Kind LED and I'm wondering if I should replace the broken FL lamp with the LED?
Thanks in advance

Hi!
With the tent that size you can use the cfl lamps but when they get bigger you should add the led too. I think the "600W" led is actually something between 200-300W so youll get 600W true power to flowering and its much better than only using one lamp

Hello IsseyBukkake,
They will do fine with the 600W LED as long as you don't put it too close. I would recommend that you either just add the LED to your growup, or then replace the broken lamp with the LED.
Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

Hi there, I always prefer CFL over LED for seedling.One big reason is you can get CFL closer to seddling without harming them.Using CFL is even better for seedling if they are cool white light.Happy growing... ✌️

Willing to spend around £500 maximum as I really want to invest however most videos on YouTube are marketing their own. Really appreciate your advice.

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent?
Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

Got a Mars Hydro TS600, will it do alright?My plan is to grow only 1 plant, in a 40x40x120 tent. I know the tent is pretty small but hopefully i can do some training on the plant to grow wide
Will the light do until the end? 100wats, but no light dim possibility. Currently growing seedling at 13 dli at 60 cm

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,
