answered grow question 5y ago
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.

Led Grow lights
I have a viperspectra xs4000 light 480 watts I am running it at around 25% on the dimmer switch and my lights are about 24" from my canopy. I've noticed some of my pistols wilting and looking stressed. Should I try to move my lights higher or continue dimming them down more?

Anyone used the Phlizon Cree COB 2000w lights? I’m running two in a 8’x4’ under a scrog net. 5 weeks into veg but nowhere near where they should be. Used only the COBs in veg as some suggested but had to put on full blast today and hope for some speedy growth before I flower them

Grow light upgrade importance
Importance of light spectrum? I'm upgrading my 5 small 15W lights with a 240w Grow Bar with Samsung LM281B diodes. My girls are growing and look fairly healthy but the speed is super slow. I'm installing the upgrade today, can I expect better results and speedier growth? 21w veg

Hello everyone, I've been looking for a good grow light that can handle multiple plants without any issues. I've heard a lot of good things about the Mars Hydro TS600. Is the light better for single plants, or can you also grow multiple?

OK to switch from 12/12 to 18/6 for auto in flower?
Is it OK to switch an auto from 12/12 to 18/6 when in flower (2 weeks)? I moved the plants from the attic which was way too hot and tried the 12/12 schedule to reduce the heat. Now that they are in an AC spare room wondering if it would be worth switching. Appreciate the support!

mars-hydro question
Before starting my grow, what is the most suitable light for my cultivation? Mars Hydro TS 1000 or Mars Hydro TS2W 2000 for a 120x120x200 grow room? Can this light be the heat source in the room?

How many watts do I need for my small tent?
I am using a full spectrum LED that draws only 30W from the wall but it might be too weak since my plant is getting lanky. I have moved it closer to the plant but now I am afraid of over-heating. How many watts LED would be sufficient for my 40cmX40cmx120cm tent?

Using a 24x24x36 tent, I have 1 mars 600 ts (100 watts) in there for one plant. I’m going to throw another mars 600 in there as well and grow amnesia haze with my northern lights. I have good ventilation, will this be enough wattage or should I get some CFLs for under canopylight

Light hanging distance
I’m not sure how high to hang my light. My plants seem to be all staying extremely squat and not stretching, though all seem healthy. I’ve been fiddling between 18-28 inches and 600-800 ppfd (ios meter app) and I can’t find a distance that seems to make them happier. D26 autos
