Light spectrum during veg and bloom periodsI have 2 1000w full spectrum lights. Each light has 2 switches-a veg button and a bloom button. This gives 3 settings for the lights-veg only, bloom only and both lights on at the same time. What settings should I use during Veg and during flower and how close should I hang them?Setup. Lighting

Bud too close to the lightHi. The main bud on one is 10cm from the light. I cant raise the light any higher and have a bit more vertical growth to go. Shall I remove the bud at a lower artery, or leave it and bend it around the light somehow?? Don't want to loose the main bud but will if I have to?!?Buds. Other

Seeds in 12/12Does keeping seedlings just the first week under a 12/12 light cycle can hurt them? I have some seeds that are not sprouting after 7 days, maybe it's because the outside temperature is too low so I decided to keep them in my growbox with my other flowering plants until they startSetup.

PAR/PPFD and light heightPAR/PPFD: does light height matter if your PPFD is in the right range? Another way to ask: is 300 PPFD @ 2 feet the same as 300 PPFD @ 20 feet, or are there other factors involved? (assuming heat, C02, all other non light inputs equal)Setup. Lighting

Changing lights for auto flowerAt the beginning the light schedule was 18/6 after 2 weeks I changed it to 24hrs because the light was too weak (10w) I now got different stronger lights (600w)(finally arrived) With the stronger lights can I change it back to 18/6 ? It's autoflower.🤔🤔Week 3
