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.

- I have a greenhouse ceiling that covers 50% of the terrace - should I grow the plants always under this ceiling, or if it is beneficial to expose the plants to direct sunlight? - If so, how old the plant has to be to expose it to the sunlight? I don't want to burn my seedling

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.

LED Kelvin Temp 3000k-6500k
Is there a massive difference in colour temperature/kelvin of LED's if the lumens, PAR, watts, intensity and every other aspect you can think of is the same but its temp/kelvin is lower? I use a 6500k LEDs, may mix in or switch to 3000K for better flowers if its proven to work.

Mars Hydro - TS1000 or TSW2000?
I have a 80x80x160 tent. I’m pretty set on getting a Mars Hydro in the future. but should I go for the TS1000 or the TSW2000? My concern is that the 2000 might get my tent too hot for me to handle and might be more than what I need since I’m only growing one plant.

Switching from veg lights to flower lights (blue to red) ?
With autoflower when do I switch from veg (5000k-6500k)blue light spectrum to flower lights(3000k-4000k) w/ red infrared ? Should I switch lights right when pistils start showing or wait until after the flower stretch when buds are forming?

How to reveg plants after preflowers by the end of april outdoors?
How big are the chances to bounce the plants back to veg after preflowers by the end of april and 14h of day length? Mostly cloudy weather, warm day temperatures (30c) and cooler nights (8c)in the old greenhouse simulated probably to much end of summer vibes.

Yellowing leaves after first Mainline top. Light stress?
Just checking in here, I am pretty sure this is light stress. it was at 18" (specs say 18-24" during veg) and she was likely pretty stressed after having her top cut off!!! I have raised light to 23". Am I on the right track here?

Started the plants off with 60 watts. Increased to 100 watts today with a 20/5 schedule. Could I increase to the full 150 watts already or should I give them a few days with 100? Thanks in advance for any advice. It’s my first indoor grow with this setup and I’m still learning :)
