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.

Wrong light schedule
Screwed up light timing. Thought I was on an 18/6 schedule in my tent but apparently it was 12/12 from weeks 3-7. It’s close to needing to be switched over to flowering size wise. I switched over properly to 18/6 two days ago and plan to keep it there for an extra week. Yes?

How much light - PPFD - without CO2?
How high in power should I go with my lights without CO2 enrichment? I can comfortably provide 1200 PPFD to the canopy, but I'm holding it down near 900 because I'm not sure the extra power used would yield an increase in, um, yield.

Light recommendation
what led light would you recommend for a Secret Jardin DS150W (77x150x200cm)? It need to have a remote driver and be full spectrum. It could also be 2 lights.

Grow light question
I notice a decent drop off in PAR as my meter moves away from center. I have a 2x2 tent and am thinking of buying a light for a 3x3 tent that has gaps allowing for ventilation. Any thoughts?

Back To 24 Hour Light - Auto Flowers
My autos switched from 24 hour light to 16 about 2 weeks ago to see if it would help make them bloom faster. Can I turn them back onto 24 hours or could that mess things up? I would like the most amount of light time. They should have 2 more weeks left

Autoflower light cycles - adjusting mid grow
Autoflowers can grow in pretty much any light cycle. What are your experiences with changing light cycles mid grow? I am currently around Day 24, running 20/4 but the humidity in my grow cabinet at lights off is very high. How would adjusting to 24/0 affect my plants now? Thanks!

2 plants, 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000’s, need help with pot size/tent size configuration
My plan is to flower these 2 girls in a SCROG under 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (2x300W actual). I’m debating whether to flower them in 5 gallon plastic pots in a 2x4, 10 gallon pots in a 2x4, or 10 gallon pots in a 4x4. Does more area = more yield, or am I thinking about this wrong?
