Mars Hydro TSW 2000 Height/Dim
lyteshostarted grow question 3 years ago
For folks with Mars Hydro TSW 2000 experience. What dim did/are you keeping your light on during weeks 2-3? I have done research and looked at MH data, but I would like tried and true experiences. Current dim is set to 2 notches below 50 at 18in. Thanks.

I have a TSW2000 in a 120cm x 120cm tent . I've started at 70CM above canopy with 30% on dimmer , after 1 week or 10 days, I've lowered the light to 60-65cm and increased to 60-70% on dimmer .
After another 7-10 days increase to 90-100% on dimmer .
You can try different heights and different dimming , even at 100% on dimmer and around 60cm from canopy wont damage the leaves . if you see some light burn , just increase the hanging distance .
I've seen that if you increase the dimmer to 100% and hanging at 70-80cm in early stage , leaves will get much bigger and plant gets thicker . you can lower from 70-80cm when you see no burns on plants

I'm not accustomed with dimming myself.
but why not just raise the light up if there's room and not dim it?
Should have the same effect on PAR no?

Mars Hyrdo TS600 - 100w but mistook for 600wI've recently found out that the led light I have which is a Mars Hydro TS600 is not in fact 600w and is actually 100w.
Do I need to compensate in any way? My plants look healthy but short, I don't want to put the light too far away that it's ineffective, how close is too close?a year ago

'Claws' on tips just after flowering started. Previous answers help - it is a bit worse. I keep a perfect VPD. What should I do? Flower wouldnt fI'm confused. For the first 3w I used LED as instructed 30-40cm, I had ~43cm,100%dim, everything was fine. When the bloom started yellow claws appeared and still there, maybe a bit worse, with 53cm and 75%dim. Mostly on BPP, one more plant showed her claws today aswell. 😓

What lights for a 2'x3'x6' tent?What light or lights for a 2x3 footprint? Veg and flower. Deciding between 2x Viparspectra XS 1500, 2x HLG RSpec 100, or a combo 1 of each. Budget is 200-300ish. Cheaper is better. Open to suggestions. Not sure if I should have 2 of the same lights or mix n match.

Can a 1000w LED grow light be closer than 60cm (24") to a seedling?Different sources are saying: 1000w LED light should not be closer to a seedling than 60-75cm (24"-30"). The seedling should be getting 5000-7000 lux, 100-300 PAR (PPFD 18h) and 12-20 DLI.
Question: Can I put the light closer at ~40cm, dimmed to match the needed lux, par and dli

Slight leaf tip "burn"What do you think is causing this burn on my leaves? It seems to be quite common. and maybe nothing to worry about if it's this minute. but I would prefer to not burn my plants at all if possible. Could it be a sign of underwatering? Light distance? i have a dimmer keepin at 1000a year ago

Is this a sign of too much light?I’m noticing the leaves grow extremely close to each other, should I be concerned at this stage, should I pull the light higher back?

Viparspectra P2000 height and intensityFor those that have experience with the light I'm using, Viparspectra P2000, how high and what intensity percentage should I have it? Currently I'm at 21" at 75% power. Also, I run it 24/7. I have an app on my phone and it says my DLI is at like 56 which seems way too high.Week 3

Nutrient burn, Light burn, or Phos Def? red stems purple bruises,Noticed red lines leaking red into the leaves with purple bruising, and the starter bottom leaves seem to be turning yellow, with the leaves above looking dark green with spots. Is this signs of light burn or nutrient toxicity? And is it lacking phosphorus or just the strain gen?
