How to use a led lamp
Abacusstarted grow question 3 years ago
How do you use a dimmerable full spectrum led lamp? When full power? When less? Distances? Mine is 1000w but this is what I find, maybe are specific for 600w one.

ok its 120w which would work for a 60x60 tent. the distribution is a little off when kept close so i’d run this at 18” or 45cm from plants.
start seeds at 40%, veg under 75% and flower under 100%. you can slowly dial it upwards to reach these percentages. increase 10% weekly for example. this applies to always keeping it at 45cm from your canopy.

It's only 125w led that is so won't be good for flowering only vegging and if its purple then its useless and will be slow growing

Will increasing light intensity restart stalled seedlingsSeeking advice from Mars Hydro TS1000 growers. When do you increase light intensity during seedling stage? I've had the light 30cm above the plant at 25% power since germination. The plants stalled 2 weeks ago. Can I get them going again by raising intensity or will I fry them?Week 4

Burn or ?leafs feel rough , little tiny greens dots with texture on leaf.
I found out after bumping the light up 40% Plants did not like.
Looked up manufactures suggested hanging / power. Seems I am over powered. The light is more 4x4 or 3x3 then 2x2

Wrong power cable in my LED light: still light when switched down off.Have you ever made this mistake? My second harvest was someway worst then my first. Sure I did some watering mistakes but during my chores in the room and in the tent, I found out. I used a random power cable on my PAR LED lamp so when It turned off still had some light on. Bang!Week 16

regarding the light spectrum ratio. what is the ideal light spectrum for both the vegetative and flowering phases?
Do you use 3500K lights during the vegetative stage, or only use cold white lights at 6000K? do you then switch in flower to 3500K lights along with 370-780nm?Setup. Lighting

Blüte einleitenWie soll ich den Lichtzyklus ändern von 16/8 auf 12/12, einfach direkt in einem Tag 4 Stunden Licht wegnehmen oder step by step pro Tag 30 min weniger Licht geben, bin mir unsicher ob ein direkter wechsel zu Zwittern führen kann, wie macht ihr es?Setup. Lighting

UV LED slowing down growth? Sorry previous question without the question!The plant has a rectangular area in the middle where it is not growing as quickly. The difference is almost 10cm. I suspect the lamp. Could it be that the centrally installed UV LEDs are causing this? They should grow more inside because of more light.Week 7

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!Setup. Lighting

Hight ProblemsI’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve 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?3 months ago

Started the plants off with 60 watts. Increased to 100 watts today with a 20/5 schedule. Could I increase to the full 150 watts already or should I give them a few days with 100? Thanks in advance for any advice. It’s my first indoor grow with this setup and I’m still learning :)Week 1

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? ThxSetup. Lighting
