Lighting. Increase or stay the same?

BlueDreamer1started grow question 3 years ago

Hi, I'm thinking about increasing lighting to 100%... is it too soon? Currently at 60% 20 inches away (manufacturers recommendation.) I'm thinking 100% but staying at 20 inches away.. what's your thoughts? Too soon? (12" - 18" 100% for veg manufacturers guidelines)

I would stay within the manufacturer's recommendations, it might be a little too soon for an increase, the seedling is still fairly young.

I was thinking that, I just wanted a little reassurance I was doing all I could for her at this time. She has no stretch either so I know shes getting enough. I guess I was wanting someone to say "yes turn it up!! She will grow faster" 😂 thanks for your help mate!

Secondary Lighting Would there be any sort of reason I shouldn't add a second less powerful light to the side of my tent? My thought is if my goal is getting more light to the lower growth wouldn't that be a good course of action?

Colour lighting Thanks to eveyone that replied to my last question, really means a lot! Another quick question about lighting I had was if I should have blue light for veg then red for flower or just have the mixed purple on for the duration of the plants life?

Can you use a 450 watt white led light to start seedlings? If so what distance should the light be and when should I make it closer? The reason I am asking this is because I don’t like transplanting autos as they are fragile to transplanting from what I’ve looked up

LUX meter grow question Can someone check out the LUX meter video and tell me how I should be positioning my lights? I think maybe I have too much light on them. My meter says 600 (x100) that puts me at like 60000 lumen. The converter I used put that to 1541.36 umol/s/m2 which is a lot of light already

How to switch to flowering It's been about 5 weeks from germination. I think we're ready to switch to flowering. I'm just not certain on how to go about it. Do I gradually reduce 18/6 of the veg light down to 12/12 (over a week?) then pop in the flower bulb? Or do I just make a hard switch?

Floodlight for bloom supplement I have read that my vipar is not the very best for bloom. I want to encourage and support the flowering with my philips 50w 4000k floodlight, what do you think, will this make a worthy difference? (Until I get a new all arounder light)

LED lights for veg-Viparspectra xs1000 I have the viparspectra xs1000 light. I turned up to 50% intensity and plant is about 30cm from canopy. Is that right for early vegetation stage?It looks healthy to me but could be wrong. Was going to turn up to 75% later, then 100% for flower. Do I need to move closer the light?
