Window light is good for veg, especially if it receives direct sunlight for a good amount of time during the day. However, I don't know if it will suffice for flower.

Yeah for an auto that might grow a little slower/smaller

Grow Light AdviceHelloo growmies!
I've got a question.. I need a new light for vegging (only) in a 80x80cm tent.
I am thinking of eather the LIGHTWAVE T5HO 60 CM (48W) or
MarsHydro TS 600 (100W)
Has some one experience with those lights? Is it worth spending double on electricity with the MH?Setup. Lighting

Lower lighting at switch to 12/12?Do you typically want to lower your lighting when you switch to 12/12?
I'm a little confused about what is meant when they say to have a 12" light distance for flowering and 18" for veg. Does that mean lower to 12" at the switch to 12/12, or just maintain a min 12" distance?6y ago

Invert light/dark during a growFor veg period is better if I start with light on in the day, and off in the night, but for bloom period it will be too cold, can I invert light/dark during a grow? I will have light on in night and light off in the day.. does the plant have any problems if I do that?Setup. Lighting

Veg/Bloom switchMy plants are 5 weeks from germination, I have flowers and buds forming but I am starting to worry they aren't growing as they should (I want them bigger). I have had my light veg and bloom switches on throughout.
Would you recommend I change over to just bloom switch now?Week 5

Just ordered a 150W Quantum Board, can I swap my Blurple UFO mid grow to the new board? Is it possible to increase flower size this late into a grow?My Blurple apparently uses 230W actual draw but is advertised as 600W. If that 230W value is correct, does that suggest my new, much more expensive QB is not as good? Will it make a difference to the plants health? What are the benefits from the QB? Thanks!6y ago

Trying to get setup rightI know I prob need to get a nicer light and ditch all the crap lights but for now I have what I have. Perhaps after some success I may be able to get a new light to replace all of them. But how far should it be? 2 feet above rockwool cube? And what watts per plantSetup. Lighting
