Stonerdanswered grow question 5y ago

If its a good quality LED lighting with proper diodes (Samsung LM301H/B for example) then it can last you for about 4-5 grows before starting to degrade/diminish which is over a year. Unlike the cheap blurples for 40-50$ that can last for a cycle or two before losing strength (not as efficient as high quality lights altogether-not worth it in my opinion). This is from my experience with these LEDs. Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

HLG 550 V2 RSpec power/height in flower I’m using an HLG 550 V2 RSpec in a 3x3 tent over one Universal Kush plant. Anyone have experience growing with this light in a similar setup? What’s the best height from plant and intensity level should I set the light to? Don’t want to stress her, just want ideal light levels.

ViparSpectra XS 1000 (x2) vs. HLG 100 RSpec (x2)Thoughts on VS XS 1000 (x2) vs. me buying HLG 100 RSpec (x2)? They'd go to either side of my HLG 225 in a tent that's 2.75' deep and 5' wide to 'fill the wings' more evenly. Thoughts on build, safety, quality & heat? HLG 100RSpec:0 / XS1000: (on sale this weekend)

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojas Estas plantas automáticas están recibiendo la misma alimentación, agua, etc y están en el mismo tipo de sustrato. Pero unas (las más oscuras) reciben luz artificial adicional (Neón CFL) para llegar a tener 17h de luz al día. ¿Es normal la diferencia? ¿Cuál se ve mejor?

LED light recommendation I am going to need a new LED light to hang from the ceiling. I am looking for a light that has the red/blue spectrum. A dimmer switch would be awesome- the ones I read about that include-seedling, veg and flowering settings sound amazing. Any recommendations out there? Thanks in

Veg or Bloom mode for Autoflower?Hiya Folks 😊 As I'm growing an autoflower should I be using the bloom setting on my LED light instead of veg setting? It's only a 200w system and I'm growing in a 3'x3'x6' tent. My plant has just done 28 days from seed!! Cheers 😉

From 24h to 18/6h during flowering ok (autoflower)?Royal AK47 Autoflower: Changing from a 24h light cycle (since beginning) to 18/6h when already flowering - no problem or not recommended? The temp is a bit too high (~30*C) I think.

LED light - Veg / Bloom Hey guys and girls, I have 2 autos that are a week old and looking strong. I have a Phlizon 600W Led light which comes well recommended. It has 2 switches. VEG & BLOOM. You can have 1 or both on. Should I have both switches on (full power) at this early stage or just VEG?
