raise lights during stretch?
TonkaSunstarted grow question 2 years ago
Should I raise the lights during flower stretch to maintain the same distance from light source to canopy? I notice that my plants continue to get taller than most. I know the stretch is natural, but I'm wondering if constantly raising the lights with growth is the right approach

A good thing to do is watch for any signs of light damage. The first signs your plant will give you will be the turning of leaves away from the light source. That's a good indication that you should raise your light.
You're going to want to keep the intensity so yes raising it is the best approach but wait until she tells you.
Hope this helps.

Advice what lamp for vegging.High guys,
My Jack Herer will move soon to a closet with a 60x60 cm surface.
For flowering I will use a 180 watt Hans Panel.
And I do have 2 led lights at home for vegging.
My first option is the Spectrabox.
And my second option is the Cree Cob led.
What is my best option?

High guys,
My Jack Herer will soon move to another closet.
I've got 2 led lights at home for vegging. Both use 60 watt but have a different colour spectrum (only have space for 1).
Which one is my best option FOR VEGGING ONLY!?!?
My options are the Spectrabox or the Cree Cob.

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?

Dialing in FC-E6500Hey!👋😺. I have a question about distance for anyone using the FC-E6500 (no meter). All the lit. we've found says 12" the entire grow and simply adjust the dimmer throughout plant stages. This really doesn't sound right to me. We're now at 13"/50% (12"/75% was too much) TY!❤️🌱
