Grow Questionsusing both veg and bloom switch toggeled to on with led light during flower question

using both veg and bloom switch toggeled to on with led light during flower question

chroniconstarted grow question 2 years ago

i was watching a video on youtube and the person was using an led light which had separate toggle switches for bloom and veg and during flowering of autoflowers he had both switches on and was wondering if that is better to have both on and if so is it only good for autoflowers?

Yes both on, the bloom is an extra addition to use in conjunction with the grow/veg light during flowering, not just the bloom light on its own during flowering. This holds true for both autos and photoperiod plants. I actually use both veg and bloom both switched on, from day one until harvest day and believe this provides better results.

I'm with organoman here... my plants always have 100% of the lights from day 1 - and why not?! If they're grown outside, you can't regulate the sun!

Yes both on during flower they like the full spectrum well autos at least i dont bother with lights that have that option because it means you are not using its actual power if half are off

In flowering you should always have both switches on, switching on the bloom switch adds the light spectrum that plants use during flowering. It's true for both autos and photoperiod plants.

additional blurple lights I 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?

amount of sunshine for autos in late flower - open air, outdoor grow We're getting 14-15 hours of strong sunshine a day. Now that I'm late flower, should I move my autos into a spot that will get shade for half of the day? Seems like they may not need to be pounded by this much light/heat at this point and could use more down time.

Light pointed at white wall for supplemental lighting?Does it makes sense to have a small 300W COB LED pointed at the white flat painted wall for supplemental lighting? If I point the light directly at the plants I would surely burn them but have no space to move back.

Autos and Nutes?When growing autos, what nutes and how much do you like to use? I use about a quarter strength of Nectar for the Gods series. I've noticed a little nute burn but not bad. Now do nutes stunt growth in autos or is it really play by ear?
