Kingbrite 240W
Anyone else using Kingbrite 240W lights? I’m running 2 in a 4x4 tent. About 30” from canopy dimmed way down. Just shut 1 off, feels like too much light in early veg. Curious on the lighting distance and intensity during veg and flower

I have a 2x4 tent I think I’m going to flower 2 plants in in a SCROG in 5 gallon pots. I have 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (300W each), is this going to be overkill on lighting?

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.

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?

Too much lighting?
Too much/too many lights? Getting all popcorn buds/low yields. Getting a light meter this week. Going through by process of elimination on how I can get better grows. Read the manufactures instructions, but not good with technical electrical/lighting terms. Thank you.

Light too close/too far ?
Is my light too far/ too close ? It’s at 20inches away from a 8 day old plant. I’m using the MarsHydro TS600 W. Thanks ! I don’t want to burn it / for it to stretch too much as I have a 140 cm tall tent. Thanks !! :)

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojas
Estas 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?

Light height
Hello all I have a mars hydro tsw 2000. I was noticing the recommended height is 24 inches for seedlings. Is this at 100% intensity? That's well over 1000 ppfd by my meter. I thought seedlings could only handle 200-400?

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

Distante between LED and plants.
The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.
