Standby lights in grow tent, under dark period/night time
TheHighentiststarted grow question 4y ago
My humidifier has a weak blue standby light. Does this make it impossible for me to use during the plants dark period?

Tape it with electrical tape. If you are growing Autos it shouldn't be a problem, if you are growing photos then tape the motherfucker, any light leaks could stress the plant and turn her hermaphrodite.

Tape over the light if you're really concerned about it but this shouldn't bother any grow of any kind!
Good luck!

Idiot - new light, wrong sized grow tentSo I’m an idiot. All this time I thought I had and 80/80cm grow tent, when it turns out it’s actually 60/60, and I of course just ordered the SF2000 light, which is almost 65cms on one side. Should I just order a new tent right away to make it fit? Or could it be squeezed in? 😭Setup. Lighting

Advice what lamp for vegging.High guys,
My Jack Herer will move soon to a closet with a 60x60 cm surface.
For flowering I will use a 180 watt Hans Panel.
And I do have 2 led lights at home for vegging.
My first option is the Spectrabox.
And my second option is the Cree Cob led.
What is my best option?Setup. Lighting

Maximum / Optimal Lux or FC for LEDs and checking readingsI have a Viaspectra P2500 which is a bit big for my tent but I figured I could dim it and have when I upgrade my tent.
I think I am burning my plants though so I am wondering what the maximum and optimal Lux/FC is for LEDs. I have the Light Meter LM-3200 app with diffuser. TySetup. Lighting

Flip light schedule1 week into flowering and I need to change lighting schedule, complete reversal from night/day due to cold night tempswhen lights are on. Only way to achieve would be to have 24 hours of dark. There maybe an impact but warmer day temps I'm sure will benefit in the end. ThoughtsWeek 4
