Please read if you can help about Light spectrum for flowering
SBCannabisCo
started grow question 5y ago
Starting week 4 Flower, I have my light (Viparspectra Par600t) 70% blue 90% red they recommend 100/100 for flowering. What u guys think? I kinda don’t wanna blast it with blue because Viparspectra are already high on the blue spectrum.

Lamp distance from seedlings? PPFD uploaded in this weeks photos.
How far away I should have my lamp from my week old seedlings? I think it has something to do with the PPFD for my lamp (TS600), but I have no idea what it means. The lamp is set right at the very top of my tent now and is 32 inches (81cm) away. See photos in week 1.

Is this a sign of too much light?
I’m noticing the leaves grow extremely close to each other, should I be concerned at this stage, should I pull the light higher back? This is day 3 of week 2, I’m feeding it full advanced nutrients line up for veg. And drying out for a day and a half between waterings

Light output once flipped 12/12
Hi guys just after a bit of information regarding flipping. When you guys and gals flip do you increase your light output gradually or do you just go straight to full power. Any information will be appreciated thanks growmies

Extra belichting
Hallo . Ik zit in de derde week bloei van mijn royal gorilla planten ze staan onder een hps lamp van 600 watt als ik nu nog een extra lamp van 400 watt zou plaatsen zou dat de opbrengst vergroten of een verspilling van energie . Groeten Gorilla

Less light for an auto? Maybe 12/12?
Been going with 18/6 for my cream autoflower from growers choice from Day 1. Now 5 weeks into flower I’m wondering if she would benefit from less light, like 12/12, as you would for a photo period plant. What do you think? Would she be happy flowering in some more dark period?

What kind of light level (lux) during the dark cycle will cause my plants to herm in the flowering stage?
What kind of light level (lux) during the dark cycle will cause my plants to herm in the flowering stage? I am growing in my bathroom (no windows) and I am worried about external light entering. My bathroom has 3 LED (30W) bulbs in, I have removed the 2 closest to my plants.

Light stress during the night time
Question to outdoor growers. The auto flowering plant is growing in the garden, and sometimes there is light on during night time, can it cause light stress? It's usual light bulb, 40w, in some distance

How to keep room dark during flower?
How important is it to keep the plants in COMPLETE darkness during lights off during flowering? Thinking of running some ducting with cut-to-size furnace filter out the vent hole on the side of the tent which supplies air right now. Will that be enough?
