Rangaku
started grow question 4y ago
Has anyone ever moved a plant from HID lights to LED during flower ? Keen to hear from your experience as it’s looking likely that I’ll need to do exactly that in the near future .

I had my plant in the flowering phase in the tent during summer and then put it in the sun for 2-3 hours at noon, and there were no problems.

Yes it can be done. A lot of times you may need to add a little more cal mag is about only issue. Plus Temps won't be as strong. Good luck. 🌱🌱🌱

Should i raise the lamp to force the strech?
I had the light the past few weeks 30cm over the plant on 100% wich has 930ppfd in 20h duration it was all together 65 DLI. I want to force the strech from now. Do you think i should raise the light up tp 50cm over the plant? The plant made nearly 20cm within the past weeks.

So, this is her 24 hours after she first came out of the soil. I am trying to follow 18-6 light cycle. The height is two inches. Does she look a little lanky to you guys? Should I lower the light a little bit?

Auto seedlings, lighting question!
Hi! I have a question. I am just about to start my first indoor grow, it’s relatively small, only two plants, both autos. I am using the Telos 6 mesh LED for lighting but I am unclear as to when to switch the power from 25-50%? Is it when the first true leaves appear? Thanks

Crecimiento o cambio a floración ?
The cabinet has been off for 12 hours by accident, should we start flowering now or is it still too early? The plants are 30-35cm tall and have a good branching system... I await your response 💚💚

Hey, why is this happening? Is the tsw2000 Mars Hydro lamp really that powerful at 50-60 centimeters? With 60% brightness dimmer? Did I add too much water? (0.3ML WATER) per plant I applied LST.
