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.

Lamp distanceHello. I have a question about my lamp distance. I’ve changed the lamp to MARS HYDRO 2023 TS600 LED a week ago and a distance to the plant was 18 inches. During this week a plant grew and the distance became 12 inches. I lifted the lamp to 13 inches. What distance I have to keep?Week 6

LEDs for 32x32 tentNew to indoor growing. Set up a 32x32 Vivosun tent. Currently have a giixer 1000w light, but wasn’t feeling the coverage was good enough for several plants. So I just ordered a second one. Do you think 2 giixer 1000w leds is ridiculous overkill?
Any thoughts appreciated.Week 2

Is it too late for scrog and have I had the light too low during the veg stage?So I noticed pistils appearing and now I'm worried that I've had my light too low during veg (~8k lux). Is it too late for scrog at this point or will they continue to grow? I've now bumped the light up to 22K lux should I lower the light to increase the intensity even more? TIA5y ago

Led light for a small seedling / early veg space 80x40x80cmThe plants to use the space to start seeds and veg them little bit until I transplant to final pot in a flower tent.
I don't have much height so is looking for a light that the plants can be close to.
Any suggestion for led or should I just go with t5?Setup. Lighting

OK to switch from 12/12 to 18/6 for auto in flower?Is it OK to switch an auto from 12/12 to 18/6 when in flower (2 weeks)?
I moved the plants from the attic which was way too hot and tried the 12/12 schedule to reduce the heat. Now that they are in an AC spare room wondering if it would be worth switching. Appreciate the support!Setup. Lighting

Bud too close to the lightHi. The main bud on one is 10cm from the light. I cant raise the light any higher and have a bit more vertical growth to go. Shall I remove the bud at a lower artery, or leave it and bend it around the light somehow?? Don't want to loose the main bud but will if I have to?!?Buds. Other

Wrong light scheduleScrewed up light timing.
Thought I was on an 18/6 schedule in my tent but apparently it was 12/12 from weeks 3-7. It’s close to needing to be switched over to flowering size wise. I switched over properly to 18/6 two days ago and plan to keep it there for an extra week. Yes?Week 7
