At this stage, I would go with 24 to 30 inches, as they grow you'll be able to bring the light down to 18 inches.

Led on 18/6 grow/flower photoperiodI have the idea to put a led in my second tent for pre growing photoperiod girls, I have some room left over for some autoflowers who also grow & flower on 18/6 light - leds can switch between grow/flower.
If I switch the led to flower will that be OK for my photoperiod girls?Setup. Lighting

Do I keep dimming my light to try to get proper DLI?Currently at 22" above soil at 50% intensity and still getting ~50DLI at Germ/Seedling stage (too high?). It's a 240W LED. Do I keep dimming the light or do I change light schedule (24h currently) to get proper DLI?

Is that just a light burn or could it be something else?One bud in the middle of my plant is much lighter than all the others, which all look healthy and green. I think it was due to the too small distance of my light, which was only 20cm (8") between canopy and light. I have now moved the light to 35cm (14").
What are your opinions?

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?Other. General questions

Plantulas deben estar bajo luz?I have a 240 watt 3500k quantum board LED. Does anyone know how long it's recommended to give them light with it? It has a dimmer, but I don't know if they need light in the seedling stage. This is my first time starting a grow with LED. Before, I would just put them in the sun for a few hours and that was it..Setup. Lighting
