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.

Change light schedule
My babies are now in 8wks, the light schedule is 17:7. I have scheduled the 8hrs sleep frm 5am-12pm (this is my sleep time) and now that I hve changed my sleep time, I would like to change their sleep time too, from 10pm to 5am. How will I change the light without stressing them?

Is your machine helper leaking light?
Everyone has their ACs and dehumidifiers and whatnot machines in the grow space. Are you covering every little light of those machines in the flowering chamber? Many hermies will be avoided with some aluminium tape. Stay safe, cover those lights and grow ganja!

Zu hohe Temperatur?
Ich bin jetzt das erste mal in meinem Leben am growen, und bin in der zweiten Blütewoche. Auf englischen Seiten geben grower an, dass die perfekt Temperatur für die Blüte bei 84-85 Fahrenheit liegt, das bedeutet ca. 29 Grad. Seht ihr das genauso?

Distante between LED and plants.
The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks

Short period grow
Hey fellow growers. So I have an odd question, Is it actually possible to start grow with 12/12 straight away? And how will it affect my plants? Let's say I have 3 autos and one photo. Will I have anything worth the time if I start straight with 12/12 light schedule? Thanks you

Posible quemadura?
Cada vez que entro en floración me pasa esto y no encuentro solución. Uso una tienda de 1,20 x 1,20 y tengo un led de 730w empiezo a pensar que la luz es demasiado potente y las plantas sufren de calor. Hubo dos dias en los que llegó a 32 grados actualmente estoy en 29/30
