Light I'm wanting to get a new light and need some help. My tent is a 3x3. I'm only growing one plant at a time. How many watts do I need? I'm going through a rough patch and only have 0 max to spend.

Light question Growing autoflowers, if you gave them 2 hours less than the recommended light; would it just take a bit longer for them to fully mature or seriously affect the yield ?

Licht Wechsel Woche 7 Blüte Ich hab mir nun ein neues Licht ins 60x60 Zelt gehangen. Ist dies ein Problem, da die neue Lampe 150 Watt / um die 750-1000 ppf Die andere (ältere) hat 120 Watt und rund 350 ppf Was sagt Ihr ? Verbrenne ich ggf die Pflanzen.

Seedling growth rate Plants grow almost 1 cm per day (3rd week). Is it too little or correct? I have the impression that they still lack light (the rods are quite thin and long), maybe I should bring them closer to the LEDs?

LED distance in grow 80x80x160 I placed the LED at a distance of 45-50cm from the seeds and consequently it was about 65-70cm from the larger plant. I have 4 plants Is it ok like this? I don't have a luxmeter and I use the phototone app to get an idea of the PPFD in each plant. LED QB 120w, LM301H

Optimal Light Distance My plants are experiencing some heat stress and my light is currently at 28 inches distance and thinking to lower it but it could hurt more the plants since I just did some LST and topping. Is it okay to lower it down to like 25 inches? What is the best height distance? TY! :)

Led Light dilemma I'm not sure if I should use my led light on full power? I know in the vegetative phase she needs 300-700 PPFD and I have a PPFD meter (app). On full power, I place the light around 45-50 cm from her to get around 500 PPFD but I don't trust the app , so what do you think guys?

DLI and Lightcycle Ich habe einen Knoten im Gehirn. Eine gute Idee bei Autoflowers ist es, den DLI bei ca. 40 zu halten. Wie macht ihr das genau bei einem Lichtzyklus von 18/6 von Start bis Finish? Lasst ihr eure Lampen wirklich nur bei ca. 600ppfd laufen, um nicht über DLI 40 zu kommen?
