Start at 36"inches and work your way to 18" as the plant grows.

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?6y ago

Veg or Bloom mode for Autoflower?Hiya Folks 😊
As I'm growing an autoflower should I be using the bloom setting on my LED light instead of veg setting?
It's only a 200w system and I'm growing in a 3'x3'x6' tent.
My plant has just done 28 days from seed!!
Cheers 😉Week 5

Light scheduleSo I got a new timer and messed up schedule. Plants got 16 hrs of light, turned lights out as soon as I noticed (5am).
11am-11pm light.(5 weeks into flower)
Should I let plants have 12hrs dark now and resume 12-12 , or let lights come on at 11am(6hrs dark)Setup. Lighting

Lighting HorsepowerI have a Horticultural Lighting Group 260 QB V2 R Spec light (260 watt LED). I previously had a 20" x 36" tent and the light was great. I have just gotten a 36" (91cm) x 36" (91cm) tent and wondering if this is enough power for great production or if more light would be better?Setup. Lighting
