When to switch LED to 100% power?
Ghostguy1337started grow question 3 years ago
Another question. I appreciate everyone's response to the last ones.
I am finding it difficult to google this one. When do I switch my LED to 100%? Currently, I am running it at roughly 60% at about 24in. Am I in 'true' veg? Its working on its 3rd node that has 5 fingers.

Lower it to 18", and bump in up 10% per day until you see the tips start to stress.
Light stress looks like nute burn but the tips dont turn down, they just yellow right at the tip.
Hope this helps, good luck with your grow!

My lights never go below 100%
I started my plants under 2 TS1000 at 100% 32inches above them in a 2ftx2ftx4ft. I let them grow into the light and then raise the light and keep it at 20 inches from the top of the canopy.
That's running LED only.
Now I run LED and CMH together in a 4x4x6.5 and keep the lights at the top as high as they can go at 100%. I also do a lot of training and take cuttings for clones.
Also you should know I don't mind paying for the wasted electricity. I know I'm most likely providing to much light for a 4x4x6.5 with 800watts of mixed lighting. But the results will show.

around what yield per plant might i expect...?I know it's not a consistent number, but does anyone with more grow experience know if there's a good chance I can get over an oz per plant? since they're still not close to being done stretching? this photo is from day 4 of flower, after a decent pruning/defoliation.

Contest curiosityFor those who have experience in contests:
How do they work? I assumed that a 2 week timer that runs out would result in someone winning lol. Isn’t that why the timer is there or am I an idiot? I feel like it should be specified somewhere if not to prevent confusion for new ppl
