Search online for Daily Light Integral (DLI) chart. The chart shows PPFD and hours per day. Then you can pick the light level based on how many hours you run the light.

Spider Farmer sf 1000 light height inquiry.
I am growing in a 2x2 spider farmer with a SF 1000, currently the light is 20" and only 80% power. It seems like a powerful light and don't want to overdue it. Should I move the light closer and turning up to 100% power for the rest of flowering?

Ventilación y Luz en plantulas
Me inspiré en McGyver y he puesto un armario improvisado... Cómo de importante es la ventilación en esta etapa de plantula?🌬️ (He dejado la puerta entreabierta por las dudas)🤔 También he puesto otra luz auxiliar..se notará en el crecimiento o desperdicio luz?🔌🔋

What do you think?
Howdy what do you think of these 2 lamps, I am undecided to take it. LUMATEK - LED ZEUS PRO 2.9 - 600W. Or Spider Farmer SE7000 650W LED What do you think?

Heat, RH or overwatering? Or alltogether?
Hey my fellow growers! The grow reached 32Celsius the last 2 days in the last hour before going into night time. On that time RH goes down to 32% and this seems like it's stressing this lady a bit. Yesterday fed her nuts - maybe a bit too much? Thank you for stopping by!

Would I benefit turning my lights on from veg to bloom at an early age with auto flowers? Or would it still be too much light for them?

what is correct light schedule for indoor germination and seedling, and then transplant outdoors?
I plan to grow a photoperiod plant outdoors from spring to fall, but the germination and seedling stages will be done indoors. For the indoor part, can I use a setup with 18 hour light schedule? Or should it be 12 hours? I don't want to trigger flowering when I put it outside.

Did I start LST too early?
At day 22, did I start LST too early? I feel that I may have stunted the growth a little from overheating, but didn't want to wait too long to start training. Also, would a higher-powered light cause less distance between the nodes, and therefore make LST harder/less effective?
