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.

Is closer to the light much better?Is the light closer better? I have a VIPARSPECTRA 1000W LED Grow Light (10W LED ,x100) and it says during veg 18-26 and flowering distance at 18-24”. Looking at other growers using LED they are closer. Should I try to keep it closer a little at a time? Is there benefit?Setup. Lighting

Better temperature for early vegIn auto flower indoor, Early veg, is better have 18ºC/24ºC, or stai around 23°C during all the day. I have an Inkbird that I can set on 23, that is cool when is light off, it warm it up. But with light off it’s drop down temperature to 23.Setup. Lighting

MARS HYDRO TS600 LIGHT STILL ON WHEN TIMER SWITCHES OFFit is a known problem i found 2 forum posts discussing it.
Different timers have been tried but it always remains the same.
Someone said with a mechanical timer the problem is solved I will try that as soon as I have one.
In any case, this is absolutely unacceptable.Setup. Lighting

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojasEstas plantas automáticas están recibiendo la misma alimentación, agua, etc y están en el mismo tipo de sustrato. Pero unas (las más oscuras) reciben luz artificial adicional (Neón CFL) para llegar a tener 17h de luz al día. ¿Es normal la diferencia? ¿Cuál se ve mejor?Setup. Lighting
