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.

Lights for heat- 24/7 okay?
I really need the heat of the lights to keep the inside of my tent warm. To warm the air around the tent 24/7 would be expensive- much more expensive than using the lights all the time. But will this work with 24 hour lights? Will that stress the plants? Using auto flowers.

Zu warm am Blätterdach
Hello, the next question: see_no_evil: What can I do to lower the temperature even more? At the canopy, it's 29-30.5 degrees Celsius. I already have 2 fans and the exhaust running at maximum level; it looks like the ladies are standing in an autumn storm. On the ground, it's 24.5 degrees Celsius.

Hans panel 180 use veg mode or not
I've got a hans panel, it's got veg setting and flower. i had it all day on veg mode, seedling was stretching so i placed maybe 30cm from the lamp, but now leaves turned bit yellow. Would it be better to put it on flower mode and place the seedling further away?

26 hour day cycle?
ever done a weird light cycle for photo plants? like 14 hours of light then 12 hours of darkness then keep repeating I know that this is longer than a normal 24hour day. 1. 12 hours of darkness is what makes weed start flower. Do weeds know days r 24hr? Can a 26hr day cycle work

Reveg/Budding issue
What is my plant doing? the days are almost 15 hours long so I don't understand why it's budding still, I expected it to reveg by now but no sign of rounded single leaves still. The days are getting longer not shorter, end of next month is when the days start getting shorter.

PAR/PPFD and light height
PAR/PPFD: does light height matter if your PPFD is in the right range? Another way to ask: is 300 PPFD @ 2 feet the same as 300 PPFD @ 20 feet, or are there other factors involved? (assuming heat, C02, all other non light inputs equal)
