Led on 18/6 grow/flower photoperiod

Janus_Garusstarted grow question 4 years ago

I have the idea to put a led in my second tent for pre growing photoperiod girls, I have some room left over for some autoflowers who also grow & flower on 18/6 light - leds can switch between grow/flower. If I switch the led to flower will that be OK for my photoperiod girls?

Hi Growmie, assuming that you have a blurple light, I believe its not really ok to just switch the led to just the flower(bloom) mode as the photo needs a particular light in order for them to grow, might be ok but you'll notice a slow growth. you can still use VEG while flowering no need to switch the LED to just flower i dont see any issue with them having VEG&Flower on at the same time it wont trigger you photo to flower as you are on 18//6 light schedule if you change it to 12/12 then it'll start to flower regardless. hope this helps 😀

Keep LED strip or remove?So this is a space tub grow, other than the above head light it has a 3500k led strip running around the sides(around 4 meters) is it worth keeping this lighting? I'm only running a 150 watt growstar led ufo, which is fine for my canopy but my bottom isn't nearly as dense.

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growing Hi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing. Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering. However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight) Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?

Shifting outdoor plants from outdoor to indoor So I was wondering if outdoor plants(week 2) getting regular sunlight (~12-13 hours) can be shifted indoors for faster growing (18/6 or 24/0 or 20/4)? Anyone tried before? it is safe? Will it cause to make them hermaphrodite?

So I want to ask you guys if I have an aluminum plate with a heat sink and coolers, can I fix those stripts there? Or can I rip them off with a heat gun?
