Hight Problems
I’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants. My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Hi first time grower here. Been vegging 4 plants in 80cmx80x160 tent with 150W LED (Mars Hydro TS1000). Start of 2nd week flower today and I added another 150W LED. Could that potentially increase my yield? Thanks!

HPS 400w Vs MarsHydro TSW2000 cost
Alguém me sabe dizer o quanto menos uma luz LED gasta comparado a uma HPS ? Por exemplo, estou usando uma HPS 400w, e subiu 40€ na conta de eletricidade, se usar uma MarsHydro TSW2000, iria fazer grande diferença ? Obrigado

Comparing My 2 LED lights
Light comparison. Ive got 4 plants in a 3x3 and am currently running the ViparSpectra V600 LED. I just got offered a MarsHydro TS1000 and Im not sure if it's an upgrade or downgrade. I've watched so many review videos and end up more confused. Should I run both?

New Light? Find a way to raise light? More Fans? Combination? (Light: 44" above ground level | Tent Height: 63" Day avg: 78.6f) Should i worry?
What do you guys recommend as far as lighting for this tent? I have a 300w led light but at the height it's currently at it is producing a large amount of heat with my exhaust and two oscillating fans? I also have other plants in with my seedling so could the humidity cause it?
