Adding in an LED board for the last 2-3 weeks of flowering?
Adding in an LED board for the last 2-3 weeks of flowering?
Dudders
started grow question 3 years ago
Currently running a 400w HPS lamp. Would there be any significant benefit in adding in a 100w LED board on purple or blurple?

No. Just a waste of electricity. Your 400 watt HPS will be far superior and also be completely adequate.

Veg cycle-Blooming
Hi I ordered a mars hydro ts600w which is arriving either today or tomorrow. I also ordered light timers which I just switched from 24hrs to 18/6. My white widow is currently 5 weeks and my Alaskan purples are 4 weeks. I was wondering if I could start flowering by next week?

Bloom light on heat goes too high?
When turning on the bloom setting the temps seem to be getting up to 84 on the very top of my tent and around 80-82 by the bud sites. Is this too high? Is there any problem turning the bloom high power switch off to let it cool down for a half hour once or 2 a day if too hot?

light on humidifier :(
okay I think I might have fucked up (lol). I bought a new humidifier. And I didn’t realize it has a light in it. And i run it in the ten over the whole night. It’s not powerful at all but it’s also not just a little led. Do u recon my plant will be okay. I covered it now.

Lamp to Plant distance - Outdoor.
If growing outside, what is the best way to calculate lamp (star) to plant distance for the journal each week based on time of year and rotation of our lovely planet? I am being facetious, of course! It's just a fun question for you all. Hope everyone out there good!

Hi guys, My LED light from my tent just stopped working, it might have been the humidity or straight water in there. The new lights might arrive 4/5 days to arrive. Do you think my plants are going to die? you can check my diaries if you need. Thanks for your help.

Setting up air cooled refactor.
I've got a new air cooled light refractor, a tube like one. I've set it up such as the pic, I'm thinking of putting the extractor where it shows on the pic with the air flow going the way of the arrow, would this be OK? I can't find anything online about setting this one up.
