Does anyone use regular Led lights?
sydnimerrittstarted grow question 4y ago
I have my 2 tangies growing one in soil and one hydro. I decided to try LED, lights 14.5 watts (2), a large plant grow light 8 actual watts (1), and a true day 9 actual watt. Has anyone else had success with these lights?

In my opinion your yield will be very small, like just a couple grams. You need 150 watts minimum for an LED to grow you atleast an Oz or more.

They might work for vegging, but will be very under powered for the strong intense light needed in flowering. I personally run 400 watt led light on my autos, my photoperiods are running 450 watts of led light. Good luck and happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

Off shoots stay or go away?Trying to learn a little bit about the pruning and defoliation processes. I understand you wanna prune large fan leaves that block bud sites early in flower.

Is my LED too close or too far from my plant?So this is my first grow and it feels like she’s growing a bit slow. Currently at day 10. Distance was 62 cm. The LED is 100W. Now the distance is 57 cm. I’m wondering if I’m just impatient. Is this distance appropriate? How is the growth looking?

Irregular light schedule.I am thinking about giving her 24h lights a few days a week and then go back to 18h. Just to give her a boost. Will this irregular light schedule harm her?
My first thought is that it doesn’t matter much since she is an auto, however I know that plants love balanced environments.Week 3

How many plants in a 70x70x160cm tent with 100W?Hello, I have a grow tent kit 2x2 with a 100W 301H EVO Spider Farmer light. I have put there three 11L pots. But now I realize the size/light of my tent might not be enough. Could I manage by adding an additional 60W lamp you reckon or is it best to discard at least 1 plant? Thx
