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🙂

This is allowed, but if you're in the full flowering stage, that warm red light will definitely help stimulate your plant even more. So feel free to switch to flowering. Your plants look really good, and I think the lamp is at a good height. Otherwise, your plant would show signs of problems. Which lamp is it exactly, and how high is it hanging now? Definitely don't point a fan directly at your plants, as that can cause wind burn. Your fan should blow gently through the space from above downwards. Thanks for responding further on this. Good luck!🌱

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
