Hey growers! I’m in day 31 of flower. I have my lights on both switches! VEG AND BLOOM! Should they both be on? Or should I have the light switched just in bloom? HELP ME PLEASE!

Hi! Apparently you have a "purple" led light. The problem with this kind of lighting is you only have one thin spectrum of red and one thin spectrum of blue. But your plants also need the "other" blue, red, orange, yellow and green (less than other color but green is needed anyway) wavelengths. Because of that, this kind of light must be used in addition to a more generic lighting, who can cover larger spectrum. For now, you could add white LEDs in you grow room, but for your next grows, I encourage you to switch to another model (or if you're confident with an iron, you can switch actual COBs to full spectrum ones).

Always use both. The sun does not have a vegging and bloom cycle. Different light spectrums adhere to different parts of the plants growth. Happy growing and looks pretty good. 🌲🌲🌲👊

Ja, de groei hoeft niet meer op dit moment. Dat is bijvoorbeeld wel handig als jouw plant nog de overgangfase zit van groei naar bloei, en ze haar voorbloeitekens vertoont en nog witte bloeiharen moet gaan aanmaken. Maar eens ze goed ontwikkeld is en volop in bloei, is de bloei voldoende. Daarvoor heb je net die schakelaar🙂

Dit mag, maar als je volop in de bloeiperiode zit, gaat dat warme rode licht je plant wel extra helpen stimuleren. Je mag dus gerust ook omkeren naar bloei. Jouw planten zien er weliswaar zeer goed uit, volgens mij hangt de lamp op een goede hoogte. Anders zou je plant wel problemen aangeven. Welke lamp is het juist en hoe hoog hangt ze nu? Zeker geen ventilator recht op je planten richten, dat kan zorgen voor windverbranding. Je ventilator staat blaast beter zachtjes door de ruimte heen van bovenaf naar beneden gericht. Bedankt om hier even verder op te reageren. Succes!🌱

You should get that light a lot closer. Also while air flow is good having a fan blowing on your plants directly 24/7 and having them shake 24/7 is adding stress to them. Ocelating fans are best but understandable with tent size. Start by getting that light a lot closer... but yes you should have both switches on for flower
