Light height. Vivosun VS1000
DonnieRedBuck
started grow question 5y ago
I have a Vivosun vs1000. Paper that came with it says seedling 24 inches. This conflicts with things that I have read saying 18. Anyone have experience with this light? It’s in a 2x2x4 Vivosun tent. Thanks

Light intensity should increase as plant grows till flowering. If you don't have a dimmer then 24 to 30 inches in seedling stage is roughly right.

Switching to bloom nutes and photoperiod changes?
When should I start giving bloom nutrients and stopping the veg nutrients? Also can I switch my light cycle to 24hrs to increase the temps and maximise my yield? Or will this mess with the plants?

Should I switch to flowering now?
The height of my growbox is 120cm (4 feet) and I'm afraid that sativa can grow taller than that.

Should I flip?
I’ve got my plants in 2gal fabric pots and I’m not planning on transplanting up. The plants are averaging about 8/9” and I’m starting to see small roots out the bottom. Should I flip to flowering, or can I get away with another week of veg?

LIGHT SPECTRUM, is that a good one for growing cannabis?
Hi guys, in the future I plan to upgrade from the current 2x2 box/150w LED. I was thinking of a 4x4 area with 500w LED. I came across an interesting 500w led lamp for quality/price and this is the spectrum chart, does it seem suitable for growing cannabis?

Light intensity? Should I dim?
I'm having a light-science question. I have 5 bulbs, 11w each, total 55w. I know this is not much but anyway. Should I dim the lights for seedlings even If I have this low setup? I mean, does light intensity affects seedlings' health? Or 55w can work on a maximum level?
