Lights died
Steevoh978
started grow question 6y ago
So my lights died last night. Would a 2000 watt be good for a 4Ă—4 tent?

hey Steevo, it's probably overkill to be honest, you're alright with 600W , anything much more than that is a bonus, but i would get a dimmer for it just in case. hope this helps ! 🚀

If its HID light, may be a bit overkill. If its LED it depends on what it draws from wall wattage.

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light

Heyho So apparently my plant got bigger than I thought. After stretching its only 30 cm from the Mars TS 1000 (Its already on the highest possible position) And I'm running it at ~80% Do you think I can turn it up to 100%?

Swapping day/night light cycle during flower
Day 22 of flower. Lights are on during the day, 8am-to-8pm but we need to switch to 8pm-to-8am to use the colder night air to cool our lights without using a/c. Would it negatively affect the plants at this point in flower to give them 24hrs dark & completely swap light cycle?

HLG UVA supplement
Introduced this hlg 30 uva light as a supplement to the twin 260s. I've read just 3 hours a day increasing 1 hour per week up to 4-6 hours before harvest. Anyone recommend anything differently or just run it 18/6 with the lights?

Im currently using 45W florescent 6500k for the seedling stage. When do you think is the best time to start using the 400W HID with a Cool Tube and how far it should be from the plant?

Hi first time grower here. Been vegging 4 plants in 80cmx80x160 tent with 150W LED (Mars Hydro TS1000). Start of 2nd week flower today and I added another 150W LED. Could that potentially increase my yield? Thanks!

Too early to turn up the dimmible LED light on my seedling?
Unsure if it's too early to turn my light up just yet or wait till more leaves are growing. Currently at 25% (10,000 lux aprox.) using the dimmer for a 120w LED at 20 inches from seedling. Thanks in advance.
