Ist mehr Licht besser!!!!

Bandit600started grow question 5y ago

Hi liebe Grower Kann mir jemand sagen, ob das stimmt wenn man mehr Licht bzw Watt hat, das die Damen schneller wachsen und eher fertig sind bei Auto Samen. Überlege nämlich ob ich mir eine 2 Lampe zulege soll. Danke im voraus 😉

35 watts per square foot is a pretty solid number. So if you have a 4'x4' growing area, that's 16ft², therefore you want around 560w. You can obviously go way up or way down, but for the best outcome, aim for that.

I wouldn't say they grow faster but they do grow the way the breeder intended on them to grow including the estimated harvest time.

Setting up air cooled refactor.I've got a new air cooled light refractor, a tube like one. I've set it up such as the pic, I'm thinking of putting the extractor where it shows on the pic with the air flow going the way of the arrow, would this be OK? I can't find anything online about setting this one up.
