Invert light/dark during a grow
Abacusstarted grow question 2 years ago
For veg period is better if I start with light on in the day, and off in the night, but for bloom period it will be too cold, can I invert light/dark during a grow? I will have light on in night and light off in the day.. does the plant have any problems if I do that?

If you want to do this with autoflowers, I'm pretty sure you'll be fine. Autos are phyto-neutral, which means they start flowering based on time alive and not the day getting longer or shorter, like photoperiod plants.
I'm not sure how well doing something like that would go with photoperiod plants, though.
Just my :text.02. I hope this helps. If I misunderstood your question, feel free to click on the airplane and message me. I'll help you get it sorted out.

Your plant will not know what time of day it is outdoors, it will only respond to light and dark, regardless of what time is on the clock.
It will be absolutely fine to to "invert" the time of light/dark to whichever time you choose.

I would grow when your hydro in the cheapest. My hydro rates are cheaper after 7 pm, so I grow from 7 PM to 1 PM while in veg and 7pm to 7am for when their in flower

Which of the two options do you choose and why:
Option 1: 1440w over 40sqft giving 36w per sqft
Option 2: 1440w over 48sqft giving 30w per sqft.
The difference is an extra 2x4 of grow space. Do i go for more lumens or more plants? This is my first LED setupWeek 4

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

Wich of those cheap lights would be advised under 200€ and that would fit both final vegging state and flowering?
The grow space is 80cmx80cmx160cm and keeping in mind that the weather along with the lack of ventilation budget limits my options to colder leds.
Thanks in advanceWeek 1

Starting photos indoors for June transplantWant to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwiseSetup. Lighting

Nanners?Can someone verify my latest 2 photos look like nanners? If so, I’d love some insight on why my plants seem to be so light sensitive. Most growers seem to blast their plants with upwards of 200w with little issue. Mine is sitting at 80w 22inches and it seems to be struggling!5 years ago
