Jmaninthemidde420started grow question 4y ago
Is it safe to increase light intensity? The seedlings are 12 days since popped out of soil and is currently at 50% power on a 500 watt+3% power light

Pal. At 450w. You shoulda be running at 25% for the 1st week. You shouldn't have to exceed 50% for your whole veg with such a high powered light. So I'd say she's at a right setting now.
No need to use more watts that's not needed.
Good luck

Small light/ big tentI just upgraded tents. It’s a 4x4x7 foot tent. I have a Mars Hydro TS1000. I know that’s not enough for that tent. But I have a plant in its 2nd week of flower that out grew the last tent. Is it ok to just keep that light above that one plant in that size tent? Thanks!!

TemperaturHello, just a general question about the temperature during the flowering phase.
Right now, I'm only getting 24-26 degrees Celsius during the day (more 26 than 24) and a maximum of 21 degrees at night.
Is that sufficient for the ladies, or do I need to take action? They are showing no signs of illness.
