- I have a greenhouse ceiling that covers 50% of the terrace - should I grow the plants always under this ceiling, or if it is beneficial to expose the plants to direct sunlight? - If so, how old the plant has to be to expose it to the sunlight? I don't want to burn my seedling

12.0v LED strip effectiveness
Will this mini led strip help my other weak light out? Or is it wasted energy. I’m still putting the plant in the sun as soon as it gets onto my balcony but while it’s really cloudy and in the evening this is all I’ve got.

When should I switch the growth bulb to flowering? I have some outdoor autos that I give extra lighting to inside the house when it's night. The bulbs are 55w CFL neons, and so far (5 weeks) I've always used the CFL with the growth spectrum.

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?
