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.

Reveg/Budding issue
What is my plant doing? the days are almost 15 hours long so I don't understand why it's budding still, I expected it to reveg by now but no sign of rounded single leaves still. The days are getting longer not shorter, end of next month is when the days start getting shorter.

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!

I have a 2x4 tent I think I’m going to flower 2 plants in in a SCROG in 5 gallon pots. I have 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (300W each), is this going to be overkill on lighting?

Quick question. My plants are now 3 weeks old and I'm still keeping them under 24 hours of light. Is it better if I switch to 18/6 now? I have feminized seeds of Green Gelato.

Just wondering if adding sunlight could improve it or makes no difference?
Do you still need to give plants sunlight if they have a tent fan and ac plus led grow lights? I really need to know if after 53 days of 6hours of sunlight daily the plant might be used to the sunlight , although I know led grow lights are like a mini sun inside tent but still?

I'm disappointed with my last yield and belive its cause of the light. Want to invest in a better product. Which one do you think will produce the biggest yield with 4 autos in a 3.5×3.5 feet wide tent? - Lumateck Attis 300W - Mars Hydro TSW 2000 300W
