I would say 40 50cm then let the plant grow until the bulb is 20 cm from plant tent start moving the lamp as the the plant grow to keep 15 20cm distance between plant top and bulb.

How many plants in a 70x70x160cm tent with 100W?Hello, I have a grow tent kit 2x2 with a 100W 301H EVO Spider Farmer light. I have put there three 11L pots. But now I realize the size/light of my tent might not be enough. Could I manage by adding an additional 60W lamp you reckon or is it best to discard at least 1 plant? ThxSetup. Lighting

How to manage a tall plant with a thick stem in week 1 of flowering?One plant I ordered online was pre-grown. Now, it’s about 20 cm taller than my other plants. At the top, the taller plant gets more than 1000 PPFD, while the lower canopy gets about 500 PPFD. It’s currently week 1 of flowering. The stem is too thick to bend down.What would youdo?Plant.

Do you lower light intensity and temps towards the end of flower?So I’m in mid flower, start of week 7 to be exact. I’m curious on when you guys start pulling back light intensity and going with a little cooler temps. I’m running a 240W S33 from AC infinity in a 3x3.
Should I be going strictly off of PAR or VPD at this point.Setup. Lighting

Help with issues IDI have a photoperiod in a 5 gal using BAS light. It is currently day 3 of week 4 , and I'm getting some damage on the tops. Would this be light stress or another issue?

regarding the light spectrum ratio. what is the ideal light spectrum for both the vegetative and flowering phases?
Do you use 3500K lights during the vegetative stage, or only use cold white lights at 6000K? do you then switch in flower to 3500K lights along with 370-780nm?Setup. Lighting

Will increasing light intensity restart stalled seedlingsSeeking advice from Mars Hydro TS1000 growers. When do you increase light intensity during seedling stage? I've had the light 30cm above the plant at 25% power since germination. The plants stalled 2 weeks ago. Can I get them going again by raising intensity or will I fry them?Week 4

Burn or ?leafs feel rough , little tiny greens dots with texture on leaf.
I found out after bumping the light up 40% Plants did not like.
Looked up manufactures suggested hanging / power. Seems I am over powered. The light is more 4x4 or 3x3 then 2x2

Wrong power cable in my LED light: still light when switched down off.Have you ever made this mistake? My second harvest was someway worst then my first. Sure I did some watering mistakes but during my chores in the room and in the tent, I found out. I used a random power cable on my PAR LED lamp so when It turned off still had some light on. Bang!Week 16

Yellowing leaves & tips curling down on 14th day. Coco / Autopot / Hesi / Mars Hydro fc-1500Would gladly use some help with my first grow 🙏
2 main reasons come to mind after googling:
1. I overwatered thinking it's hard to do since I'm using the Air dome.
2. Too intense light. Was checking a lot of growers that actually grow 24/0 and went for it 75% 40cm.9 days ago
