Dialing in FC-E6500
Hey!👋😺. I have a question about distance for anyone using the FC-E6500 (no meter). All the lit. we've found says 12" the entire grow and simply adjust the dimmer throughout plant stages. This really doesn't sound right to me. We're now at 13"/50% (12"/75% was too much) TY!❤️🌱

Bud too close to the light
Hi. The main bud on one is 10cm from the light. I cant raise the light any higher and have a bit more vertical growth to go. Shall I remove the bud at a lower artery, or leave it and bend it around the light somehow?? Don't want to loose the main bud but will if I have to?!?

Led light for 60x60x140 not too pricey
I'm looking for a new light for 60x60x140 if anyone can recommend the wattage and a decent reliable brand. I got a cheap Chinese one that was fine but a lot of red lights on the bloom switch have gone out :( energy efficient led please

Throw out one plant?
Is it productive to kill one plant if the rest of the plants are filling out the room just fine and to promote ventilation and light penetration? I have one plant that is way shorter and behind the others due to genetic problems.

Light Science
Has anyone watched some Youtube videos by Dr Bruce Bugbee from Apogee Instruments? I find his lectures on lighting to be the most straight forward explanations I have heard yet. I found his vid called "The New 400-750 nm ePAR Range Explained with Dr. Bruce Bugbee" to be eye opening on lighting colours. I have changed my LED's based on a few of his vids. He explains what plants really want and those Burple lights just don't cut it. For those that don't know he is a professor at the University of Utah that legally studies cannabis growth. He takes the science of weed grow to a whole new level.

Thoughts, good idea or bad idea?
I got an idea from when I was pruning pecan trees growing up. If I install small LED lights directly inside each "window" or "pocket" will that improve total light and production, or will I just burn the plants?

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 :)

Light burn or nutrient burn?
Hey guys. The tips of my leaves are starting to turn yellow and I’m wondering if this is a nutrient burn or light burn? I lowered my ppm feeding to about 250 a few days ago and am growing in ocean forest fox farm soil. And the light is an optic 2 running just the cobs at 24”.

*FC-E4800 Hanging Distance*
1st grow -4x4 with 480w Fc-e4800 in early veg (auto) but I am very confused on light distance and dimmer %. Apart from recommended distances, can someone point me to how I can establish the correct height and dimming % required based in the grow cycle? Currently at 30% & 55cm

When to flip into flower?
currently midway through my 9th week of veg and am wondering when I should send plants into flower, should I double check sex first? (Feminized seeds) or wait until my screen fills out more? Plants are in 3 gallons pots and I worry that they might get rootbound if I veg Longer.
