The bloom light is a supplement to the grow light, so both lights on during flowering.
Personally, I run both veg and bloom together from day one until harvest and believe the plants grow better this way.

Run both on all the time. The sun don't have a bloom, and veg switch.

72H NON STOP LIGHTI think I'm effed.... When I changed the light cycle 3 days ago, I unwillingly touched the "ON" button (it was on auto prog before) on my timer... I noticed last night that the light was still on.
That means : 72h of nonstop light. What does it mean? what to do? they seem weak

Mars hydro 600 lights not going fully outHi everyone
I'm having issues with my LED mars hydro 600w when the timer is going to 'off' the lights are still very dim, with the plant being a photo period I'm worried the dimmed lights won't let the plant sleep and shock it or keep it in veg. Has anyone had this issue?Setup. Lighting

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,
Mr.STMSetup. Lighting

Electrical power calculationActual power consumption of lights is lower than led manufactorer says.
25 leds of 3W each = 75W plus an internal fan plus some other circuits,Total power should be more than 75W and i calculated 58.3W overall.
Vac=220 , I=0.265A
Any ideas?Setup. Lighting

LED lights for veg-Viparspectra xs1000I have the viparspectra xs1000 light. I turned up to 50% intensity and plant is about 30cm from canopy. Is that right for early vegetation stage?It looks healthy to me but could be wrong. Was going to turn up to 75% later, then 100% for flower. Do I need to move closer the light?Week 2
