Light came on for about 30 seconds about 3 hours into the dark cycle
ohighoanstarted grow question 4y ago
So Im 3 days into 12/12 and I bumped my timer last night and my light came on suddenly during the dark cycle. I immediately shut it right back off. Was I wrong in shutting it back off right away? Should I be worried about anything?

Hi! Being at the beginning of the 12/12 cycle, luckily nothing problematic. If it had happened consistently during flowering, the stress would have induced the production of male flowers :) in fact, one of the methods to make feminized seeds involves giving 15-30 minutes of light in the middle of the dark hours :) it's not a very appreciated method due to the stress it causes though. Happy growing!

Sorry hat the question earlier before but I'm new here so I dont know how to undo the solved quesion status. The LED has about 300W and I want to dimm it. not simply turn it on/off. Preferably with some kind of integration in home automation systems like Home Assistant. Thanks :)

2x2x4 yield expectations?I want to use a 2x2x4 tent, growing (Gorilla Cookies) autos in Nature Living super soil mixed with Coco Loco. I want to yield just a few high quality ounces. Is this easily achievable with one 3 gallon pot under a SF-1000? Should I be concerned with any plant height issues?Setup. Strain Β· Autoflowering

Weak full spectrum led place in front of window enough to finish bloom?The weather looks really bad so i guess i need to take her inside a lot. I place her inside a barn in front of the glass door but she still hasnt there much light there. I ordered a 40 Watt full spectrum LED to add on the sunlight. Just read "used power 10 W" Will that be enough

Set Up TentHow should I set up my carbon filter, exhaust fan & air ducts? Iβm in limited space right now but want to make sure I get good air circulation still. I set it up the wrong way the last time I had it up but it was already up so I just left it. Also, my fans. Where should they go ?
