To much light is a major part of the Bro Science, your plants can handle whatever you throw at them as long as your environment is on point, if your VPD is on, your, soil temp, and feed, your plants will take as much PPFD and DLI as you can put out...I guarantee you that your light isn't anywhere near as strong as mine and walk the light to them 100% from seedling and they love every bit of it...So keep your temp, humidity and other parameters in check and crank that light up, you'll thank me in the end

Enciende tu luz al 100% cuando veas indicios de floración si es automatica o cuando cambies el fotoperiodo. En vegetativo con un 60% anda perfecto. Suerte

Sigue las instrucciones del fabricante para la tercera semana. Las plantas se ven saludables Si no tiene un luxometro, utiliza la app Photone en tu smartphone como guía de los PPFD que están llegando a la planta No será exactamente preciso porque usas el sensor de tu móvil, pero te sirve como orientación y te sirve absolutamente para comparar cuanto están subiendo los PPFD cuando pases del porcentaje actual de la lámpara al 100% Buenos humos!

Lux Meter Apps on Smartphones What are your thoughts on Lux meter apps? The app on my Samsung Galaxy S10+ is showing 16,600 Lux at the tops of the seedlings, and converting that to a rough PPFD shows 222.55/umol/s/m². Reading more, 15k-45k Lux and 200-400 PPFD is good for early veg. What are your thoughts?

White and blurple led in same tent?I recently upgraded to a TS1000 for my flower tent, and am waiting on an SF1000D for my veg tent, and now have a tmlapy “1500w” blurple sitting around. Would i gain anything running the blurple and ts1000 in the same tent? Or is it not worth the extra energy consumption

LED distance to plant advice Interested in how close I can get my 630w LED with a rating of 2.7μmol/W and 1700 PPF to my canopy. I had it hung 48cm (19 inches) on 380w and just upped it to 500w day 8 in flower. Does this sound too close at 500w or is this ok? Temp is 25C (77F) humidity 55%.
