Id like to make sure I'm not wrong in positioning the TS600 60cm above the rockwool cubes for germination.

Personally for germination id just raise it all the way up and let them stretch for the light a bit. First set of true leaves you can drop it down to around 24" or whatever the manufacturer recommends

Good T5HO flower combo, 3000K and PureBloom? http://www.growagromax.com/products/t5-grow-lamps/t5-pure-series/agromax-pure-bloom-t5-high-output-grow-lamp/
Thanks to all for your great advice! This is my first grow, currently in veg wk 5, using 8 x 6500K, 4’ T5HO. Flipping to flower in 2-3 wks, will use 4 x 3000K tubes and planning to get 4 AgroMax Pure Bloom tubes. Is 50/50 mix of 3000K and Pure Bloom a good combination of light?

Autoflower 24hrs of light?
AUTOFLOWER - I checked on my seedlings this morning, and the temp in the tent dropped to 9 degrees celsius during the night. My light puts off a bit of heat. Am I better to run the light 24hrs and maintain a warmer temp, or give them a few hrs of darkness and risk dropping temp?

Autoflower Permanent Stretch, Growing too close to light and it's overcrowding a flowering tent.
Day 70 and I have a plant that has preflower stretched for almost 4 weeks now. No bud sites or pistils really and is massive. 4 auto seeds, same strain. All crazy different, all very different needs. Pull it, keep it, defoliate hand sized leaves, 12/12? Grows 2close to light

3000 watt power use
This is my first time using such a powerful light in my opinion, 3000 watts seems overkill but that's what i want. The question IS, is it better to have 1-2 plants under the 3000 watt or worth it to manage 4 at a higher distance? Cheers. Don't keep techniques in mind.

Mars Hydro TS1000 and Spider Farmer SF1000D in 26x26 tent together?
I’ve purchased an Mars Hydro FC-E 3000 for my 3x3 tent, so I now have a TS 1000 I’ve removed from the 3x3, that I want to move to my 26x26 and run it along side my Spider Farmer SF1000D. Is that overkill/pointless waste of energy for that size environment?

Hps mixed with mars hydro 600 yield?
Hey all! So i been thinking about ways to cut heat of course lol. So I’m thinking about getting a mars hydro 600 and running it with my 400w hps at 250w on the dimmer. Do you guys think I will yield about the same as if I was just running the hps on super lumens?
