How far I can hang my TSW2000 in veg to improve the temperature? It's hot and not sure how far to hang it and how much to set the dimmer, now it's 65cm away and 75% potency but in my other questions people say that my plants needs more light

At the stage you’re in now, you can hang the lamp about 30cm above at ~25% power.

I have the TSW2000 set to 46cm and 75% power for my current grow. That corresponds to a DLI value of 40 or PPFD of ~630. Measured with the Photon app. The temperature is at 26.5°.

Hi—- lower the light a touch and don’t be afraid to open up the tent in veg to avoid the hot temps. Good luck

I would keep the light no higher than 50 cm. And no closer than 37 cm.

Looking at the picture here and judging by the stems of your plants, they get really long when they are too far away from the light. The long stems are indicators that your light is too far away and you need to bring it closer for maximum efficiency. To bring down the temperature you may want to look in to more fans for air circulation. Also make sure that your exhaust air is going outside of the room that you were growing in. This helps play the role in optimal environment conditions.

Did I start LST too early?At day 22, did I start LST too early? I feel that I may have stunted the growth a little from overheating, but didn't want to wait too long to start training. Also, would a higher-powered light cause less distance between the nodes, and therefore make LST harder/less effective?

Led on 18/6 grow/flower photoperiod I have the idea to put a led in my second tent for pre growing photoperiod girls, I have some room left over for some autoflowers who also grow & flower on 18/6 light - leds can switch between grow/flower. If I switch the led to flower will that be OK for my photoperiod girls?

Led mounted on side wall instead of top So I'm thinking about to build a pc grow box, just for seedlings. When they start to be bigger I'll move them to bigger grow box. I have a spare grow light but it's to wide to mount in top of grow box. So I was wondering if I could mount it on the side wall?

2 plants, 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000’s, need help with pot size/tent size configuration My plan is to flower these 2 girls in a SCROG under 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (2x300W actual). I’m debating whether to flower them in 5 gallon plastic pots in a 2x4, 10 gallon pots in a 2x4, or 10 gallon pots in a 4x4. Does more area = more yield, or am I thinking about this wrong?

Idiot - new light, wrong sized grow tent So I’m an idiot. All this time I thought I had and 80/80cm grow tent, when it turns out it’s actually 60/60, and I of course just ordered the SF2000 light, which is almost 65cms on one side. Should I just order a new tent right away to make it fit? Or could it be squeezed in? 😭
