started 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!

Would there be any sort of reason I shouldn't add a second less powerful light to the side of my tent? My thought is if my goal is getting more light to the lower growth wouldn't that be a good course of action?

Invert light/dark during a grow
For veg period is better if I start with light on in the day, and off in the night, but for bloom period it will be too cold, can I invert light/dark during a grow? I will have light on in night and light off in the day.. does the plant have any problems if I do that?

Distância e potência do Led
For the seedling stage: Is the LED power at 25% (mars hydro TS1000) and a distance of 60cm from the plant adequate, or can I reduce the distance for better growth during this stage??

Is this enough? 2 mars hydro 600 TS or 200 watts of led in a 24x24x36 tent,
Using a 24x24x36 tent, I have 1 mars 600 ts (100 watts) in there for one plant. I’m going to throw another mars 600 in there as well and grow amnesia haze with my northern lights. I have good ventilation, will this be enough wattage or should I get some CFLs for under canopylight

Is anyone else using Spider Farmer Lights ? How was the stretch on your plants using these lights ? My plants stretched from 10 inches to 30 inches in two weeks & another week of stretching left.😒 Not a big deal but I have a 60 inch tent , not a lot of room to LST.

Grow Light Popped Its Clogs.
Hey Guys😬 So my grow light has popped its clogs, but I am currently unemployed and broke, and the flat that I live in does not have enough sun to move the plants to that source. Anybody got a really low-budget solution or idea? I can construct if need be. Wanting at least 200w

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
