NonameGrowDudestarted grow question a year ago
The plants to use the space to start seeds and veg them little bit until I transplant to final pot in a flower tent.

Vegging requires less light. So you don't need a strong light for just a vegging area. I don't have a recommendation beyond something with a dimmer. Something with a cooler or more blue spectrum. Red is not needed a lot with just vegging

Personal choice for that space would be 2 x SF1000.
Gives you flexibility to adjust light intensity and good enough to pull 10 oz in flower.

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

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,

2X ViparSpectra V600 Distanz?Hey,
ich frage mich was die optimale Distanz der Lampen zueinander wäre,
um eine Fläche von 120x100cm auszuleuchten?
Die Intensität nimmt zu je näher etwas unter der Quelle ist
Addiert sich die Intensität bzw der par Wert bei Überschneidung?
Erfahrungen?
Vielen Dank 👍

LED lights for veg-Viparspectra xs1000I 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?

LUX meter grow questionCan someone check out the LUX meter video and tell me how I should be positioning my lights? I think maybe I have too much light on them.
My meter says 600 (x100) that puts me at like 60000 lumen. The converter I used put that to 1541.36 umol/s/m2 which is a lot of light alreadyWeek 7

Can you use a 450 watt white led light to start seedlings? If so what distance should the light be and when should I make it closer? The reason I am asking this is because I don’t like transplanting autos as they are fragile to transplanting from what I’ve looked up
