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.

Can I switch my lighting schedule ?
Hello everyone. 1st grow here. I'd like to swap my lighting (automatic plants) from [4am:midnight] to [4pm:noon] just to keep the temperature a little higher at night. Is it doable while not hurting the ladies or should I shift it an hour per day to change the cycle ? Thanks !

1 inch seedling under a humidity dome sprayed with water in a 24x24x36 Vivosun tent. I’m using a mars hydro ts 600 watt led which is 21 inches above my seedling (small tent). Do I downgrade to my 150 watt ufo light until I can do LST? This mars led is definitely warming up things

Marshydro FC oder FC-E
Lohnt sich der Mehrpreis der FC Serie im Vergleich zur FC-E Serie? Auf dem Papier ist der Unterschied ja eher marginal.

Which light
So I’m a new grower and I have the mars ts600 for flower and veg but I’m looking at getting some more power when in flower. I dunno whether to get another of the same light which is 100w or go for the mars ts1000 with is 150w but with both ts600 I would be pulling 200w together

Light schedule
When growing auto flowers, is it ok to run 18/6 for the entire grow? Or should you do 12/12 during flower?

Anyone affiliated with Mars Hydro? Very disappointed with customer service
My TS 1000’s controller/driver crapped the bed. Contacted customer support, told them the issue, they diagnosed based on videos i send, and was told they were sending replacement parts. 2 weeks later, no email confirmation and no reply to my previous 2 emails sent a week apart.

Longer Light Cycle - Mid Bloom
Is changing the light cycle of an autoflower from 18/6 to 20/4 in mid flower too stressful? Doing so would bump my DLI enough to keep my existing light through harvest. She sleeps like clockwork but less so now in mid flower. Will she adjust in a couple days to a longer day?

Switch Fixture During Bloom
Plant exceeded growth expectations. Now the light penetration is not at the desired PPFD half way down this crowded plant. Any reason not to upgrade to a 250 bar light during flower with Autos?

Is this enough? 2 mars hydro 600 TS or 200 watts of led in a 24x24x36 tent,
Using a 24x24x36 tent, I have 1 mars 600 ts (100 watts) in there for one plant. I’m going to throw another mars 600 in there as well and grow amnesia haze with my northern lights. I have good ventilation, will this be enough wattage or should I get some CFLs for under canopylight

Eyeball and advise on my set up, and is this seedling stretching?
Is my set up good until my humidifier comes? (using inflow air from in-line fan with a tray of water for humidity for now). I set up an additional light because I was concerned that this bad boy was stretching and want to provide some extra light for lower canopy later.
