Mr_Incognitoanswered grow question a year ago
That’s cool! You may even lower the lamp to get 680 ppfd, that makes 44 DLI in 18 hrs. But since plants are relatively small and short you can go a bit less, like 600 ppfd.

It’s not bad but where are you getting these numbers? I press for close to 850-1000 umols/m2/sec PPFD in 12 hour photoperiod flower cycle.
These numbers are ok for 18 hr veg cycle. Familiarize yourself with DLI (daily light integral) if you have not already.

Lighting cycle for VEG stage. Is 24x7 OK?Hi,
Should I use the VEG lights 24x7 from the time I plant my seed until it's ready to bloom, or would something like 18 hours on and 6 hours off make more sense? Is there a "best practice" for veg lighting? It has worked for my first 3 grows. VIPARSPECTRA 600W LED
Thanks,

Bad idea?Will a mars hydro TS1000 be too strong for a 60x60x140cm tent?
I have been using a TS600 and TS1000 in tandem in a tent 4x too big for the light level, I have been growing strong and tasty buds but with low yields so downsizing my tent size to maximise the light.Other. General questions

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white
