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.

También he puesto otra luz auxiliar..se notará en el crecimiento o desperdicio luz?🔌🔋4y ago

I have scheduled the 8hrs sleep frm 5am-12pm (this is my sleep time) and now that I hve changed my sleep time, I would like to change their sleep time too, from 10pm to 5am. How will I change the light without stressing them?Setup. Lighting

Do you lower light intensity and temps towards the end of flower?So I’m in mid flower, start of week 7 to be exact. I’m curious on when you guys start pulling back light intensity and going with a little cooler temps. I’m running a 240W S33 from AC infinity in a 3x3.
Should I be going strictly off of PAR or VPD at this point.Setup. Lighting

3000 watt power useThis is my first time using such a powerful light in my opinion, 3000 watts seems overkill but that's what i want. The question IS, is it better to have 1-2 plants under the 3000 watt or worth it to manage 4 at a higher distance? Cheers. Don't keep techniques in mind.Setup. Lighting

Light cyclehi everyone, I wanted to ask if now that I am at week 6, if it would be better to switch to cycle 18/6? since it broke the ground it is doing 20/4 but I thought that maybe in flowering it needs more rest. thank you all for your help and good growth🌱💚Setup. Lighting
