started grow question 3y ago
Looking to upgrade my maxibright daylight pro 8 bar led light to something a bit bigger and beefier. Something that has a span of 1.5m x 1.5m and ideally more power. 1000w etc. Any suggestions on what works well and why you like it? Thank you

LED lights for veg-Viparspectra xs1000
I have the viparspectra xs1000 light. I turned up to 50% intensity and plant is about 30cm from canopy. Is that right for early vegetation stage?It looks healthy to me but could be wrong. Was going to turn up to 75% later, then 100% for flower. Do I need to move closer the light?

General question about raising lights.
Gotta question for what most of you are doing to raise your lights? Currently I've just set it static and move as needed. But I'm curious if anyone has a easier method or know of anything made to aid in the raising of the LED light fixtures ?

Too early to turn up the dimmible LED light on my seedling?
Unsure if it's too early to turn my light up just yet or wait till more leaves are growing. Currently at 25% (10,000 lux aprox.) using the dimmer for a 120w LED at 20 inches from seedling. Thanks in advance.

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?
Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower. I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷♂️🏼
