The same amount of W that you used for the other 10 auto grows you did.

Light distance and power with a 205W Sanlight LEDSanlight told me I should use it dimmed at 80% and 45cm when in flowering. I was aiming to reach lower buds so I put it at 100% and 50cm from the upper buds. The tips of the leaves are slightly burned but no bud bleaching yet like my last run (at 100% 45cm). What's best ? Thx !Week 11

additional blurple lightsI also got the blurple lights from my friend. To keep the temperature down I haven't installed them yet and not sure if I will. Will they make a difference if I add them next to the current LED? If so should I wait until the flowering stage or anything like that?Week 1

Add on lightingHey Growdiaries. I’m about to start my 2nd grow but I’m not happy with my Viparspectra 300 for flower. I want a cheap add on for the flower stage? CFLs look like a cheap, low energy use, add on as I’m only growing two plants in a small w3xd2xh3 ft tent. Any advice plz & 🙏🏼Setup. Lighting

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
