Schould i buy another more expensive lamp with more watts or can i just buy a second xs 1500 ?
Dopacks
started grow question 4y 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.

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 1000

Light Intensity
Hi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?

LUX meter grow question
Can someone check out the LUX meter video and tell me how I should be positioning my lights? I think maybe I have too much light on them. My meter says 600 (x100) that puts me at like 60000 lumen. The converter I used put that to 1541.36 umol/s/m2 which is a lot of light already

I forgot the timer open and the plant has been lighting for 2 days now. Normally I have to turn the lights off at 6 pm. What should I do? Should I wait until 6pm? Or should I turn it off and switch to a new light schedule? Photoperiod - 5th Week of Flowering Phase
