Light intensity in veg - Help needed!
arg_weedloverstarted grow question 5y ago
I have a 4x4 Tent (120x120cm) with 16 Autos and run a 480W 3.5K LED at ~55 % at a dist. of 40-48 cm (1.3-1.5 feet).
Lux: 20-26k. They are tall with up to 14 cm (0.45 feet).
What would be the right light density in week 2-3?
Ideas? Plz help! THX

Bro, in the vegetative stage, the plant needs between 400 to 600 ppfd for optimal growth.

Keep it simple, just lower the lights to 35cm. 480W is not too much for the room

Low Humidity and high temp or high humidity and low temp?Do you think it’s better lower temp and higher humidity (like 27 degrees c and 80 % humidity) or higher temp and lower humidity (like 29 degrees c and 60 % humidity)? I’m just waiting for the humidifier but in the meanwhile I have to fix somehow. Thanks!Week 1

Swapping day/night light cycle during flowerDay 22 of flower. Lights are on during the day, 8am-to-8pm but we need to switch to 8pm-to-8am to use the colder night air to cool our lights without using a/c. Would it negatively affect the plants at this point in flower to give them 24hrs dark & completely swap light cycle?

Lumatek attis 300WGood afternoon Farmers. I have a Lumatek Attis 300w LED and I'm using it at 100% (it includes a dimmer that can be adjusted in 20% increments). I wanted to know if there’s any problem using it at 100% from the initial phase or if there are specific values for each phase. Thank you very much!Setup. Lighting

I think I am burning my plants though so I am wondering what the maximum and optimal Lux/FC is for LEDs. I have the Light Meter LM-3200 app with diffuser. Ty
