Schould i buy another more expensive lamp with more watts or can i just buy a second xs 1500 ?
Dopacks
started grow question 5y ago
Does it make sense to buy another Viperspectra xs1500 with 150watts? So my question is, if the power of 2 same led lamps add up together?

Yes both together would equal 300 watts. Add another it's 450 watts..

As hempkid said. Also the beauty of having to lamps is if temps get to high you can turn one lamp off to cool down then when that comes back on you could turn the other lamp off.

Como regular el calor en el armario
I have a 1x1 closet with a 400w bulb, it's about 50cm from the plant and its temperature ranges from 25ºC to 30ºC while the bulb is on. Then during flowering, I'll switch it to 600w. How can I regulate the temperature so it’s not so high, and what distance should it be from the plant?

78,600 lumens at canopy, ok for pre-flower and flowering?
I have recently received a lumen meter. Measuring 78,600 lumen over canopy, is that OK? For my other grow, does anyone know how many lumens seedlings need (at about 25000 now) ? I can convert from PPFD or PAR. Educate me! Thanks

I’m trying to figure out the optimal height to hang my KingLed 1000w full spectrum at for seedling, veg, and flower. I feel like part of why my plant was is so small is due to incorrect hanging of the light but idk

mars-hydro question
Before starting my grow, what is the most suitable light for my cultivation? Mars Hydro TS 1000 or Mars Hydro TS2W 2000 for a 120x120x200 grow room? Can this light be the heat source in the room?

Distante between LED and plants.
The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.

Light spectrum during veg and bloom periods
I have 2 1000w full spectrum lights. Each light has 2 switches-a veg button and a bloom button. This gives 3 settings for the lights-veg only, bloom only and both lights on at the same time. What settings should I use during Veg and during flower and how close should I hang them?

LEDs lumens
is there a method (which does not involve the purchase of a rather expensive device) to measure the lumens present in the growbox? I would like to make sure that the LEDs that I bought have the same performance declared on the package 😕

light dilemma
When shine only with flower light, i reach 20,000 lux units in the buds area. But when i turn both lights on at once, both the growth and bloom spectre, the lux units increase to 65,000. I wonder if the extra growth light will affect the flowers that are already blooming. Thanks.

Hey, why is this happening? Is the tsw2000 Mars Hydro lamp really that powerful at 50-60 centimeters? With 60% brightness dimmer? Did I add too much water? (0.3ML WATER) per plant I applied LST.

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 !
