Mars Hydro dim settings

NewJackWeedstarted grow question 4 years ago

@weezy90 I have it dimmed to about 35% at 19”. I may be paranoid but I think I see slight tacoing! Should I crank to 90%? 100%?

I'd raise your to 24" inches above the canopy.. Not the floor. And crank it to 90-100%. I don't see any tacoing.. Tacos look different. You've got a lot of light power you might as well use it especially with autoflowers as the growing cycle is shorter so the more light the better. Your plants might get a bit cranky from the changes in light levels.. But they should be fine with the light at that level..

The dim setting is quite useless really unless you're running out of lamp height, can be good for seedlings too to save power 🌱👍

Unless you have a PAR meter, I don't recommend using the dim settings. Your babies need about 600 ppfd right now. Look up your light on Amazon or somewhere else. They should include ppfd maps to help you know what height to place your light at.

Yep, net wat HarbingerOfHarvests zegt😉 Is ook wat de fabrikant ongeveer aangeeft en ik doorgaf bij je vorige vraag. Dus volg deze raad maar op. 🌱

Dialing in FC-E6500 Hey!👋😺. I have a question about distance for anyone using the FC-E6500 (no meter). All the lit. we've found says 12" the entire grow and simply adjust the dimmer throughout plant stages. This really doesn't sound right to me. We're now at 13"/50% (12"/75% was too much) TY!❤️🌱

Distante between LED and plants.The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.

LIGHT SPECTRUM, is that a good one for growing cannabis?Hi guys, in the future I plan to upgrade from the current 2x2 box/150w LED. I was thinking of a 4x4 area with 500w LED. I came across an interesting 500w led lamp for quality/price and this is the spectrum chart, does it seem suitable for growing cannabis?
