Organoman is spot on - although you can always let your plant tell you what it wants/needs.. if the nodes are too close together, move the light away or dim them... if they're getting leggy, increase the power or move them closer....

The Mars Hydro website will tell you everything you need to know.......they are the experts when it comes to their lights, rather than bro science based on something someones brothers-in-law friends' cousin did!

Light height and intensity Hello all. Recently I upgraded my lights to 2 mars tsw 2000. I've noticed my plants are growing slowly compared to everyone else's. I have it set at 24 inches 25%. However a mars hydro admin posted 12 inches 75% during veg? Isn't that like 1500 ppfd? I'm so confused.

Should I dim my TS1000? Ts1000 When using two lights in a small space should I be worried about to much light? The plant is mature and is about to transition to flower, I’m just curious what is too much if any. The TS 1000 is dimmable the sf1000d is not. Lights are 18” at the moment
