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 Kelvin Temp 3000k-6500k Is there a massive difference in colour temperature/kelvin of LED's if the lumens, PAR, watts, intensity and every other aspect you can think of is the same but its temp/kelvin is lower? I use a 6500k LEDs, may mix in or switch to 3000K for better flowers if its proven to work.

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?

Danger of Humidifier Good morning everyone. So I've recently set up my new TS1000 and I'm wondering is humidifier dangerous for LED lights? It's directly under the light 60cm. And how can I regulate the temp in the room without new equipment? It's too high at the moment.

Heat, RH or overwatering? Or alltogether?Hey my fellow growers! The grow reached 32Celsius the last 2 days in the last hour before going into night time. On that time RH goes down to 32% and this seems like it's stressing this lady a bit. Yesterday fed her nuts - maybe a bit too much? Thank you for stopping by!

Spider Farmer sf 1000 light height inquiry.I am growing in a 2x2 spider farmer with a SF 1000, currently the light is 20" and only 80% power. It seems like a powerful light and don't want to overdue it. Should I move the light closer and turning up to 100% power for the rest of flowering?

NEED SOME ADVICE! Change to LED from HPS? which ones are good for tent size? Which ones are good for good yields?I've got a 4x4 tent with 8 seedlings in cups but will be in 11L pots. Currently I had a 600w HPS light but my ballast busted today. I have a back up CFL 150W not to mess up the light schedule. Thinking about changing to LED lights, I know it'll be cheaper but I want same yield...

Autoflower light cycles - adjusting mid grow Autoflowers can grow in pretty much any light cycle. What are your experiences with changing light cycles mid grow? I am currently around Day 24, running 20/4 but the humidity in my grow cabinet at lights off is very high. How would adjusting to 24/0 affect my plants now? Thanks!
