Noname121rstarted grow question 2y 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

Light strips Opinions on led strips down the poles of my tent for extra light or saving up for an upgrade.... I've been talking to a fellow grower and I know I need more light in order to have a better yield. I thought 4 light strips would give light from each side plus on top. Whatcha think?

LIGHT SPECTRUM, is that a good one for growing cannabis?Hi guys, in the future I plan to upgrade from the current 2x2 box/150w LED. I was thinking of a 4x4 area with 500w LED. I came across an interesting 500w led lamp for quality/price and this is the spectrum chart, does it seem suitable for growing cannabis?

Light setup Currently I only got 2 x 50W / 5000K flood lights for veg and approx 150W / 2700K later for flowering. Both LED. Planning to keep lights close to plant - 35-45cm. Do you think its going to be sufficient or should I get professional lights asap?

Swapping lights during flowering Do you guys think that swapping lights at the late flowering stage is going to harm my girls in any way? Been fortunate enough to be able to order myself a Viparspectra xs4000 to replace the v600. And as I understand it should be quite an upgrade. Thanks for any advice!

Is that possible to do grow light with Samsung LED strips?Going deeper into idea of doing the quantum board from scratch but instead SMD LED's there are lots of strip LED options. So I want to ask you guys if I have an aluminum plate with a heat sink and coolers, can I fix those stripts there? Or can I rip them off with a heat gun?

Very technical question - LED wattage vs actual power used My LED is a Phlizon 600w but the power draw is only around 97w at the plug. Perhaps a silly question, but is my diary entry supposed to be 600w or 97w? Looking at other diaries, it looks like yield is expressed as weight/watt and want to be consistent.

Slight leaf tip "burn"What do you think is causing this burn on my leaves? It seems to be quite common. and maybe nothing to worry about if it's this minute. but I would prefer to not burn my plants at all if possible. Could it be a sign of underwatering? Light distance? i have a dimmer keepin at 1000

couple quick questions Do I need to close the flap to the vent during dark cycles? (Lights off during the day) and should I block lights coming from fan power, humidifier, dehumidifier, or indicator lights? Also do I need to use the carbon filter the whole time? should I ever have the exaust fan off?
