No Problem growmie, as ive already grown with the SF-1000
You start with adistannce of at least 70 cm with seedlings, and just let them grow towards the light
if you see your plants yellowing, dwarfing... rise the liight
if i have new lights i always start slow, and each strain is alittle ddifferent but the 70 cm has shown as "sweet spot"...
but pls check it back by yourself......
it is better to start with low light, than nuking them.
I never used the dimmer knob on the sf1000.....
i started on 100cm... and found the area around 70 cm was the right one......

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

Could anybody please suggest which LED light they would recommend for a 4x4 grow.
Willing to spend around £500 maximum as I really want to invest however most videos on YouTube are marketing their own. Really appreciate your advice.
Many thanks!

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent?
Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojasEstas plantas automáticas están recibiendo la misma alimentación, agua, etc y están en el mismo tipo de sustrato. Pero unas (las más oscuras) reciben luz artificial adicional (Neón CFL) para llegar a tener 17h de luz al día. ¿Es normal la diferencia? ¿Cuál se ve mejor?
