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.

I am unable to edit. LUX values would be preferred.

Do I need to lower my lights?Do I need to lower my lights? I'm using a Kingbrite 240W Samsung lm301h and I just went into flowering period. I think the light is a bit overpowered for the room, so I've left it at about 21 inches above the tops of the plant. At this distance, all areas are getting 27k lux.

Plug timer running fastMy plug timeris running about 10 fast each 24hr. And is now at about 2 hours past the actual time. This causes the light cycle to shift forward slightly everyday. Should I set it back to the correct time, leave it be or buy a new one? It is plugged vertically in wall socket.

Tent too hot?I added two blurple lights - I'm not sure how much they're helping growth but they are definitely making the tent hotter - about 5 degrees F. I have a fan blowing at the bottom of the tent and at top over the lights but I'm worried that it might be too hot. Should I ditch them?

6” three week oldI was wondering if I stunted my plants’ growth by having my lights at max intensity right off the bat. I also didn’t have vpd dialed in til 2nd week. Organic soil.My pulse one has said 96 light intensity since I got it..should I be lowering the intensity of bulbs til flower?

Wich of those cheap lights would be advised under 200€ and that would fit both final vegging state and flowering?
The grow space is 80cmx80cmx160cm and keeping in mind that the weather along with the lack of ventilation budget limits my options to colder leds.
Thanks in advanceWeek 1

New Light? Find a way to raise light? More Fans? Combination? (Light: 44" above ground level | Tent Height: 63" Day avg: 78.6f) Should i worry?What do you guys recommend as far as lighting for this tent? I have a 300w led light but at the height it's currently at it is producing a large amount of heat with my exhaust and two oscillating fans? I also have other plants in with my seedling so could the humidity cause it?

Cuando y como pasar mis plantas a floración??I'm going to switch my plants to flowering 12/12, I've read that they leave them without light for 48 hours to force flowering, is this good or should I just skip it?? And I have a dimmable ballast, I have it set to 400w, when I switch to 12/12 should I set it to 600w or wait until the second week of flowering to change it to 600w??

light on humidifier :(okay I think I might have fucked up (lol). I bought a new humidifier. And I didn’t realize it has a light in it. And i run it in the ten over the whole night. It’s not powerful at all but it’s also not just a little led. Do u recon my plant will be okay. I covered it now.Setup. Lighting

23 hours light per day?I’m running 4 autos in a 4x4 tent on 20 hours of light per day. I’m thinking about the possibility of changing the light hours to 23 hours a day and 1 dark hour. I’m currently on week 8/9, I’m expecting it to finish roughly 12/14 weeks from birth. Any thoughts on this growers?Setup. Lighting

Light came on for about 30 seconds about 3 hours into the dark cycleSo 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?4y ago
