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

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

Mars Hyrdo TS600 - 100w but mistook for 600wI've recently found out that the led light I have which is a Mars Hydro TS600 is not in fact 600w and is actually 100w.
Do I need to compensate in any way? My plants look healthy but short, I don't want to put the light too far away that it's ineffective, how close is too close?3y ago

NEED SOME ADVICE! Change to LED from HPS? which ones are good for tent size? Which ones are good for good yields?I've got a 4x4 tent with 8 seedlings in cups but will be in 11L pots.
Currently I had a 600w HPS light but my ballast busted today.
I have a back up CFL 150W not to mess up the light schedule.
Thinking about changing to LED lights, I know it'll be cheaper but I want same yield...Setup. Lighting

Set Up TentHow should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? I’m in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?

Yellowing leaves after first Mainline top. Light stress?Just checking in here, I am pretty sure this is light stress. it was at 18" (specs say 18-24" during veg) and she was likely pretty stressed after having her top cut off!!!
I have raised light to 23". Am I on the right track here?

Grow Light for 3x3 tentLooking for a good grow light for a 3x3 flower tent.
-Price is not an issue
-Low heat since I am venting into my living area.
-Even light distribution. I plan on doing a SCROG so having the same light intensity on the edges as the center would be best.Setup. Lighting

How many watts do I need for my small tent?I am using a full spectrum LED that draws only 30W from the wall but it might be too weak since my plant is getting lanky. I have moved it closer to the plant but now I am afraid of over-heating. How many watts LED would be sufficient for my 40cmX40cmx120cm tent?Plant. Too tall
