Which led? leds are not even close to the same. 200 watts can be dramatically different from one light to the next.

anywhere from 12" in flower (depending on your diodes) to 24" in flower... (depending on the diodes).. A safe veg height could be anywhere from 20"-36" .. Need to know the brand and model name of the led if you want advice about it.

Come to my aid
Yooyoo guys could this be light stress ? Also should I consider a second defoliation? I reckon it could help the shorter plants get more light What do you guys think ? I’ve added a pic of the light Happy growing

Should one decrease light intensity during early flower?
Should one decrease light intensity during early flower, and then gradually increase again? I see DLI/PPFD recommendations for flowering in general, but not for the different stages of flowering.

So this is my first solo grow in a completely new setup (previously only grown in collaboration with a friend). Started off with a cheap blurple light. Very slow start then upgraded to a mars hydro TS1000 2 weeks prior to flowering. Topped at 35 days How is she looking?

Max temperature?
Max temperature accepted with lights on? I don't know when to use the lamp at full power, but when i tried i had 30°C at pot level with the lamp around 65/70 cm from the plants... That's too much i guess.

Hi, can anyone tell me if it's normal, or why those lower branches are stretching so much? I have only one 50w cob light. Which apparently produces equivalent to 150watt... Is that enough? I have only one plant and a very small grow box. Thanks for any advise :)

Add on lighting
Hey Growdiaries. I’m about to start my 2nd grow but I’m not happy with my Viparspectra 300 for flower. I want a cheap add on for the flower stage? CFLs look like a cheap, low energy use, add on as I’m only growing two plants in a small w3xd2xh3 ft tent. Any advice plz & 🙏🏼
