Light height
GermanGrowsstarted grow question 4y ago
Hello all I have a mars hydro tsw 2000. I was noticing the recommended height is 24 inches for seedlings. Is this at 100% intensity? That's well over 1000 ppfd by my meter. I thought seedlings could only handle 200-400?

Hang it at 24 inches and power at 25% 👍 don’t need to turn up to 100% until your into flower. Good luck 💪

Single CF Grow COB LED (300 W) sufficient for one plant?Would like to know your thoughts on my 300-W COB LED (www.amazon.de/dp/B07Z678V5) I’m using in open space on a single plant. I’m not expecting huge yields with this lamp, but I am hoping it will be sufficient to bring a healthy plant to harvest.Setup. Lighting

How much light - PPFD - without CO2?How high in power should I go with my lights without CO2 enrichment? I can comfortably provide 1200 PPFD to the canopy, but I'm holding it down near 900 because I'm not sure the extra power used would yield an increase in, um, yield.Week 7

Starter kits!What can I expect from a 600w starter led, I know they're not meant to be great, but of 2 plants in 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m tent, fan kit, filter, etc. I know it won't great an there loads of other factors but say its a good grow, goes well what can you expect with these of good plant.Setup.

Light height full power vs dimmedHi, with light height, does it make a difference to the plant if I'm at full brightness and further away vs dimmed and closer? I'm going to start running out of tent space soon so I'm expecting I'll need to dim in late flower. I think it's ok just looking for assurance :)Week 6
