Light Decrease, yay or nay? (I'm in no rush)
SHOULD I DECREASE LIGHT TO 10 HRS TO SIGNAL TO THE BUDS ITS SNIPPIN' TIME? I'm in no rush, only that the light setup is not ideal for younguns! Don't wanna bully them til they're frail and weak... and not dank.

Lighting schedule?
Many references state the when moving from vegetative to flowering stage the lighting schedule (indoors) needs to be reduced from 18-20 hours down to no more than 12. Why do many here stay at 18 or more the whole way through?

How to manage grow light height with plants of different sizes?
My grow light is suspended (offset from plants) about 10” from the canapy of my two LST’ed plants but only about 6” from my control plant (no LST). Everyone seems happy, and I am not noticing any burns or lack of growth (unless too close can stunt?). Should I rethink the setup?

Light intensity? Should I dim?
I'm having a light-science question. I have 5 bulbs, 11w each, total 55w. I know this is not much but anyway. Should I dim the lights for seedlings even If I have this low setup? I mean, does light intensity affects seedlings' health? Or 55w can work on a maximum level?

What light to plant distance would you set it at? The only test I've done is at 25 inches its stable at 80°f and 75% humidity. When I lower it to 18 inches, the tent read 85°f and 73 humidity. Other question I have is what's your favorite air stone(disk)? Lastly, add c02 yes/no

LED lights for veg-Viparspectra xs1000
I have the viparspectra xs1000 light. I turned up to 50% intensity and plant is about 30cm from canopy. Is that right for early vegetation stage?It looks healthy to me but could be wrong. Was going to turn up to 75% later, then 100% for flower. Do I need to move closer the light?

Autoflower 24hrs of light?
AUTOFLOWER - I checked on my seedlings this morning, and the temp in the tent dropped to 9 degrees celsius during the night. My light puts off a bit of heat. Am I better to run the light 24hrs and maintain a warmer temp, or give them a few hrs of darkness and risk dropping temp?

I have several question about my setup for the first week:
- is the distance of the light to the plant ok? - is the intensity of 25% correct? - should I remove the seed coat or should I just let Mother Nature do it, eventually it will be blown up..

100W full spectrum enough for 2 plants in a 80x80x160cm tent. Should I get a 300W instead?
So, I bought this light, it's a 100W full spectrum grow light. But I think I might've bought it too hastily. I want to ask you guys before I return it though. Do you think I should get a 300W instead? Planning on growing 2 auto plants ScrOGed.
