Switch Fixture During Bloom
Benzelsanswered grow question 3 years ago
If it has a brightness control knob on it or you have a digital controller then some people swear by running the new more powerful light at 75-80% for a few days to a week and then turning it up to 100% just to ease them into the brighter light, but its not like your going from 100W to 350W or more.
150W to 250W will be fine even at full power. They will love it and you will never go back to the 150W. Also If your running 150W Fluros like your diary says- look into A LED light in the 100W range- it will throw more light then the 250W fluros easily with much less heat.

I think you will be fine IMO. When you make the change keep a eye on her for any signs of stress, I don't think there will be any. I run my autos at full power 24hrs a day from day one with no issues. Cheers

How many plants in a 70x70x160cm tent with 100W?Hello, I have a grow tent kit 2x2 with a 100W 301H EVO Spider Farmer light. I have put there three 11L pots. But now I realize the size/light of my tent might not be enough. Could I manage by adding an additional 60W lamp you reckon or is it best to discard at least 1 plant? Thx

Help with issues IDI have a photoperiod in a 5 gal using BAS light. It is currently day 3 of week 4 , and I'm getting some damage on the tops. Would this be light stress or another issue? The tips are starting to go light green. Using the 200 watt light for the 2x4x8 ac infinity tent.

Stretchy seedlings...worried!Hi, I have 5 seedlings on day 7. 2 of them are going fine but the three from ditch passion were very stretchy though. Likely due to having the light to far away. Take a look, any advise would be great. Cheers all!

Hight ProblemsIāve got 3 plants in my tent, but theyāre all different heights. To compensate, Iāve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants.
My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?
