The light is to far away. You have a dimmer so you can put the light closer and run it with less power.

Found a cheap light that I think would be perfect in my small tent, would it?
Would this light be good to add to my setup? (60W 55 draw cob in a 40x40x120cm tent) ://i.imgur.com/VTayXRu.png 4500 Lumen 4000 or 6400 Kelvin 50 Watt (I already know there is much better, but know I am asking about this one)

Lighting. Increase or stay the same?
Hi, I'm thinking about increasing lighting to 100%... is it too soon? Currently at 60% 20 inches away (manufacturers recommendation.) I'm thinking 100% but staying at 20 inches away.. what's your thoughts? Too soon? (12" - 18" 100% for veg manufacturers guidelines)

Will this work?
Hey there growers. I’m looking for any suggestions if there are any. My girl has out grown her tent height wise. I secured her to the side of the tent to angle her. Any other options or suggestions? Or should she be ok? Sorry new grower here.

Max temperature?
Max temperature accepted with lights on? I don't know when to use the lamp at full power, but when i tried i had 30°C at pot level with the lamp around 65/70 cm from the plants... That's too much i guess.

Hi! I have just changed to 12/12 bloomtime for my girls. I have a wifi-cam installed so I can check in on them when I want. It has night vision so there are a few red dots(led) from the IR. Can they cause trouble nighttime?
