What height and power for seedlings? Kingbrite 480w in 3x3

GWSD82started grow question 4y ago

Kingbrite 480w in 3x3 tent - What height and power for 1 week old seedlings? Currently 30 inches from plant at about 50% power. Too much, or not enough? Anyone have experience with these lights?

Not familiar with the light, but your height and 50% sounds about right! Good luck ✌️🏻💚🌿

@ChitownCannaChica thanks. I think this is about right, they seem to be growing ok, so I'll just gradually increase them as time goes on with a view to be at 100% power by the time they hit flowering stage. Will keep an eye out for light stress if it gets too much.

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 :)

Light and water Thank you guys! for watering, I don't know how she can react giving her more than 250ml. I can try but I don't want to drown her. For the light, unfortunately direct sun light arrives from 11.30/12 am to 7pm. Before it is covered by other buildings behind my terrace.
