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.

Theirs a digital dimmer which can be turned down to 250 watt would that be ok is just comes as a full set

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

Light flashed onOur power did some interesting things during the storm & the lights went on in the tent - I would say they literally flashed on & then off (along with the rest of the house) - during the *dark* period. How concerned if at all should I be about this? Anything I should / could do?

How to switch to floweringIt's been about 5 weeks from germination. I think we're ready to switch to flowering. I'm just not certain on how to go about it. Do I gradually reduce 18/6 of the veg light down to 12/12 (over a week?) then pop in the flower bulb? Or do I just make a hard switch?Week 4

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?

Best LampsDear fellow growers! I kindly ask you to give me strong advice on LED lighting.
Specifically, which COMPANY and MODEL is currently THE BEST. For plants, of course - not for the wallet.
Price and economic considerations are also important to me, but not the most. Thanx & regardsSetup. Lighting

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
