yeah set it to 250w and you'll be fine.I used to use 400w in a 90x90x180 tent with cooltube,that was good too. but either way you'll need a cooltube reflector. without cooltube, temps hit 33-34C easily.

I would say it is way too big. A 200 or 250 watt would be more appropriate in my opinion.

Changing Lighting Schedule
The days on the plants are since planting, so i was going to keep the vegetative light schedule until 5 weeks since planting, then start moving towards a 12/12. Is it even optimal for an autoflower to have a traditional 12/12 lighting schedule during flowering?

Lighting Change
Okay, I feel like I am asking a lot of questions so let me apologize for that. Lol. So my plants just seem to be behind most people's I see on here.Is it too late to change my lighting schedule? My theory was northern hemisphere gets many days 24hr lighting. Good or Bad?

Light Intensity
Hi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?

When to turn the light on after sprouting?
We have a sprout! Tropicana Banana sprouted between 10pm last night and noon today. Can I turn the light on now, and start the 18-6 schedule tonight or will it fuck it up if I turn the light back off at midnight tonight to begin the 18-6 schedule?

How much light for a stunned seedling?
If my seedling is stunned, how much light in watts should I give to her? Does it make sense to give minimum light to help recover after over-feeding? (in my case 11w all spectrum bulb). I mean to help her to focus on recovery, not on reserving energy

11/13 for flower
I need my grow to finish flowering ASAP, due to extenuating circumstances... I’ve read that flower can occur faster under 11/13 with some loss of yield. Does anyone have experience here? How much will yield and flowering time be influenced?

Hey, why is this happening? Is the tsw2000 Mars Hydro lamp really that powerful at 50-60 centimeters? With 60% brightness dimmer? Did I add too much water? (0.3ML WATER) per plant I applied LST.

Lamp to plant distance: is 40cm enough during flowering phase?
Started with 70cm (afraid to "burn" the leaves), but moved it down to 40cm after checking other grow diaries for auto seeds. Should we keep the lamp ~25-40cm away from the plant from now on? *Lamp is a 300W LED panel (full spectrum)
