25% TS1000 for sprouting or higher?

Faegrowsstarted grow question 3y

I recently started growing in my new HS40 with the TS1000. How high should I put the TS1000 at untill she sprouds? Should I keep her on 25% untill she sprouts or can I push it up a bit? The light is all the way up.

Hi, hab auch mit ner 1000 TS angefangen. Du kannst die Lampe auf 30cm Höhe hängen und ca. 20-25% Leistung geben. Würde erst mal mit 20% anfangen, erhöhen kann man immer noch.

I never start my seeds under a light. Just a good old fashioned windowsill. When they sprout then they go under light. The sun is free energy.

I find 18 inches at 25% works for me. Best of luck on you new grow.

Personally I keep mine 25% all through veg until a week in flower, if my plants stretch then I would turn the light up higher or simply bring the plant closer to the light, no need to waste your energy when veg

WHAT IS CAUSING MY LEAVES TO CURL? (Day 64 pictures)The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏

Light and water Thank you guys! for watering, I don't know how she can react giving her more than 250ml. I can try but I don't want to drown her. For the light, unfortunately direct sun light arrives from 11.30/12 am to 7pm. Before it is covered by other buildings behind my terrace.

T5 vs. LED for veg?So I have a T5 light, and I’ve used it to veg quite a bit, and it does really well. My question is, should I use the T5 in just the seedling phase, then use LED for veg and flower? Or will the T5 give me good results throughout the veg cycle?
