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.

Right lighting at day 6 - fluo or HI as both available
Right lighting at day 6? Very happy that all germination looking good on day 6 from seed. I could either continue with this compact fluorescent bulb (15 cm from tiny first leaf) for another week or two OR switch to full HI 250w immediately (30cm from plant) Thanks!

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?

Heat, RH or overwatering? Or alltogether?
Hey my fellow growers! The grow reached 32Celsius the last 2 days in the last hour before going into night time. On that time RH goes down to 32% and this seems like it's stressing this lady a bit. Yesterday fed her nuts - maybe a bit too much? Thank you for stopping by!

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.

UV rays - Is it worth
So guys, what are your thoughts about UV light complementation? Earlier this year, I havested an auto flower, and she dind't bulk up the trich production. I ended up with big flowers but with no effect at all. I was wondering if that has something to do with my light setup.

Do I need to lower my lights?
Do I need to lower my lights? I'm using a Kingbrite 240W Samsung lm301h and I just went into flowering period. I think the light is a bit overpowered for the room, so I've left it at about 21 inches above the tops of the plant. At this distance, all areas are getting 27k lux.

Is this stunted or normal?

Max temperature?
Max temperature accepted with lights on? I don't know when to use the lamp at full power, but when i tried i had 30°C at pot level with the lamp around 65/70 cm from the plants... That's too much i guess.

How to switch to flowering
It'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?
