Hey guys, so I wanted to ask about leds. I’ve been growing my plant on full spectrum during flowering. I have about 3 - 4 was left. Would it be beneficial to switch the light to RED only. Would I see any advantage doing this. TIA ✌️🏼👍🏼👊🏼

Hey there Sticky Fingaz, just ask yourself this : "what color is the sun?" that's the best color for plants , i think the best bulb for that spectrum is Tungsten Metal Halide something like off white is what you should be going for. There's a reason all the LED companies' new lights are white with just a few red diodes. So to answer your question specifically : it wont do much , probably wont help at all , nothing you can really do towards the end of flower that really does a lot, your best bet is probably the opposite : reducing your light cycle the last week or 10 days , THC gets degraded by light, that's why folks try the dark period before the chop, but reducing your light cycle works better. Hope this helps 🚀

No, leave both the veg and bloom lights on together, your plant needs as much light quality as possible to produce quality trichomes. In fact, in my experience, having both switched on during veg is best too. Hope this helps,...... Organoman.
