Mixing LED lights

HopBudstarted grow question 3 years ago

Hi everyone! I am growing 4 autos in 3x3 tent under the p300 platinum led light. Is it ok to add an additional VS1000 as a supplement light? Or will the difference in spectrum cause trouble?

Mixing spectrums can be a good thing. I imagine you would only need the additional light running during flowering. Temperature, and humidity levels would be ideal to keep a eye on as well. Good luck and happy growing 🌱

I don’t see why your couldn’t. It may significantly raise the temperature in the tent with both lights on. I would monitor the tent for the first few hours after adding it. Good luck with your grow, cheers 🤙

amount of sunshine for autos in late flower - open air, outdoor grow We're getting 14-15 hours of strong sunshine a day. Now that I'm late flower, should I move my autos into a spot that will get shade for half of the day? Seems like they may not need to be pounded by this much light/heat at this point and could use more down time.

additional blurple lights I also got the blurple lights from my friend. To keep the temperature down I haven't installed them yet and not sure if I will. Will they make a difference if I add them next to the current LED? If so should I wait until the flowering stage or anything like that?

Light pointed at white wall for supplemental lighting?Does it makes sense to have a small 300W COB LED pointed at the white flat painted wall for supplemental lighting? If I point the light directly at the plants I would surely burn them but have no space to move back.

Distance from pot to light during germination Worried about our light power and distance to the pots, should we be running it at full power with the light higher in the tent or vice versa? Also very unsure about watering amounts in these early stages and is it okay for water droplets to be sitting on the growth? TIA

Too little light I have now tried removing the WPM by smiering 40/60 milk/water on the affected areas. Deep inside the canopy aswell since little to no airflow passes here due to the plant being so deep in the pot. And apart from that the plant recieves 8 hours of light and I cant install a LED.
