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

Como regular el calor en el armarioI have a 1x1 closet with a 400w bulb, it's about 50cm from the plant and its temperature ranges from 25ºC to 30ºC while the bulb is on. Then during flowering, I'll switch it to 600w. How can I regulate the temperature so it’s not so high, and what distance should it be from the plant?Other. General questions

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?

Danger of HumidifierGood morning everyone.
So I've recently set up my new TS1000 and I'm wondering is humidifier dangerous for LED lights? It's directly under the light 60cm. And how can I regulate the temp in the room without new equipment? It's too high at the moment.
