Light proof during veg?

slothasorstarted grow question 4 years ago

Hey! If I am doing a 18/6 veg light cycle... Does it need to be completely light free during the 6 hours or will light leaks still cause hermie's like in flowering? Thanks!

Only light leaks during flowering will upset your plants. Light leaks during veg have absolutely no detrimental effects. It is however probably best not to have them or minimise the frequency as best you can. Hope this helps,.......... Organoman.

The light coming in during the dark period can disrupt key functions. ... Any light leaks after the switch can disrupt this and put plants back into vegetative growth or cause them to hermie.

Led mounted on side wall instead of top So I'm thinking about to build a pc grow box, just for seedlings. When they start to be bigger I'll move them to bigger grow box. I have a spare grow light but it's to wide to mount in top of grow box. So I was wondering if I could mount it on the side wall?

11/13 for flower I need my grow to finish flowering ASAP, due to extenuating circumstances... I’ve read that flower can occur faster under 11/13 with some loss of yield. Does anyone have experience here? How much will yield and flowering time be influenced?
