When to put the light on?
Panzorastarted grow question 4y ago
Hey there,
Do you need to put the light on the pots directly after you planted the seeds in the ground? Or do you need to wait untill they poke true the ground and then put the light on them?

Plant can't absorb light till leaves open. But I leave the lights on anyway because I don't mind paying my electricity bill.

Auto and regular plants in one box.I got an auto plant in a box, waiting for flowering to start very soon. Light schedule 20/4. Now I planted a new photoperiodic seed in a same box. What should I do, keep the 20/4 light schedule before the auto plant finishes and after change to 18/6? Or change it right now?Week 1

Lights and plantsHello grow masters! I would like to ask you if mh 250w and hps 250w are good for veg (the fist one) and flower (the second one) in my 80x80x170. I would appreciate some opinions and advices about my 3 ladies too. Remind that this if my first indoor grow so don't be bad with me!6y ago

High guys,
My Jack Herer will soon move to another closet.
I've got 2 led lights at home for vegging. Both use 60 watt but have a different colour spectrum (only have space for 1).
Which one is my best option FOR VEGGING ONLY!?!?
My options are the Spectrabox or the Cree Cob.Setup. Lighting

Hans panel 180 use veg mode or notI've got a hans panel, it's got veg setting and flower.
i had it all day on veg mode, seedling was stretching so i placed maybe 30cm from the lamp, but now leaves turned bit yellow.
Would it be better to put it on flower mode and place the seedling further away?Setup. Lighting
