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.

I have several question about my setup for the first week:
- is the distance of the light to the plant ok? - is the intensity of 25% correct? - should I remove the seed coat or should I just let Mother Nature do it, eventually it will be blown up..

I purchased two Vipar Spectra 300 LED Lights. I am only using one right now because i was concerned two would be too much for the seedling phase. Should I keep just the one light or Put up Both ? When would be a good point in the plants life cycle to put up the extra lights ?

the light came on by accident at night
Hello! The light in the grow box accidentally turned on for 10 minutes while I was sleeping. Is this too harmful for the two autoflowers? Will they become hermaphrodites?

Temperature VS More Light which is better for buds size and potency
Should I continue to use two LEDS if temps are reaching 87f during flower (day 1) or just move plants more towards center of tent and use one LED for better temperatures (75f) (only growing two plants). lights are 1000w bestiva and are in a tent that is 24"x48"60".

MARS HYDRO TSL 2000
The problem has arisen now, every time it turns on only half of the panel lights up, if I change the position of the plug it fixes it until the next cycle when it has to turn on again, and the exact same thing happens.

Power and distance
Ok so...... This is a Mars Hydro TSW2000 specific question. 1, When should i go 100% with the light as far as plant age is concerned? 2, I've seen various distance tables that all vary so i'm asking TSW2000 growers specifically what their distances are for Autos. Many thanks

Light distance and power with a 205W Sanlight LED
Sanlight told me I should use it dimmed at 80% and 45cm when in flowering. I was aiming to reach lower buds so I put it at 100% and 50cm from the upper buds. The tips of the leaves are slightly burned but no bud bleaching yet like my last run (at 100% 45cm). What's best ? Thx !

Is that possible to do grow light with Samsung LED strips?
Going deeper into idea of doing the quantum board from scratch but instead SMD LED's there are lots of strip LED options. So I want to ask you guys if I have an aluminum plate with a heat sink and coolers, can I fix those stripts there? Or can I rip them off with a heat gun?

Hey guys and girls, I have 2 autos that are a week old and looking strong. I have a Phlizon 600W Led light which comes well recommended. It has 2 switches. VEG & BLOOM. You can have 1 or both on. Should I have both switches on (full power) at this early stage or just VEG?
