Autoflower light schedule
Soon rolling into veg for my first auto grow. Currently on an 18/6 light schedule using Mars Hyrdo II 700w . Don’t have any problems with temp/humidity inside tent. Once you notice the buds starting to flower do you switch to 12/12 or just keep plugging away with 18/6?

My grow tent is sitting in my basement, which normally sits at 10C in the winter, so I set the heat in the room to 18C and the LED and 2 fans heat it to 20.4C in the tent. Anyone have a similar setup but using their grow lights as a heat source? Heating a basement is expensive.

Hi all, Are the leaves point upwards a good sign of a happy plant or a sign of too much light? This is my first grow and i am trying a variety of setups and just trying to be cautious as what I have read in the forums is either one way or the other. Thanks!

Is this light good enough?
Will this be enough for 2 auto flower plants in a grow tent? Or will it work for one? The tent is 20x35x64. Or should I get another one or a different light altogether? Thanks!!

regarding the light spectrum ratio. what is the ideal light spectrum for both the vegetative and flowering phases? Do you use 3500K lights during the vegetative stage, or only use cold white lights at 6000K? do you then switch in flower to 3500K lights along with 370-780nm?

Questions: See photos. 1. MARS Hydro TS 1000 will not support 4 cannabis plants, correct? Support = Obtaining full plant potential. 2. The Chinese 3000K lighting won’t “hurt” my plants in veg, right? It’s just simply isn’t the lighting that works for veg growth, yea?

Flower Light
Do you think this would be a good flowering light (on a budget) for a 4’x4’x80” - 1000 watt (5 plants - indoors - all hybrids ... if that matters)
