started grow question 3y ago
If I use my old aquarium and try to germinate. Would the lamp be sufficient for early stage, or does it have to be a lot stronger?

Te sirve para los primeros días Si ves que la plantula se estira (el tallo se hace muy largo), acerca la lampara o cambia a un CFL o LED de 50W

Do I leave the lamp on 24/7? Or do I keep it turned out for some time?

Hey m8! Pretty sure that would work well for the early days of the plant the Watts of the aquarium would help confirm this statement

Hight Problems
I’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants. My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Less light for an auto? Maybe 12/12?
Been going with 18/6 for my cream autoflower from growers choice from Day 1. Now 5 weeks into flower I’m wondering if she would benefit from less light, like 12/12, as you would for a photo period plant. What do you think? Would she be happy flowering in some more dark period?

Leaves drooping after switching from MH to HPS light for flowering. Is this expected?
Flowering started on auto, switched light from MH to HPS 4 days ago. Same power, same ballast, different bulb vendor: - 150W MH from Superplant at 5000 K - 150W HPS MASTER SON-T APIA Plus from Philips at 1950 K Flowering continues but leaves started to droop, plant looks sad

Light burn
2 fairly new leaves at top (opposite ends) seem to show signs of light burn (yellow tips). They recently turned a bit more green but the tips are still quite yellow. Light = 13 inches away. PAR 370 at center, 350 on sides. DLI=~ 22.5. CO2 bag in tent (at about 620). Thoughts?

3000 watt power use
This is my first time using such a powerful light in my opinion, 3000 watts seems overkill but that's what i want. The question IS, is it better to have 1-2 plants under the 3000 watt or worth it to manage 4 at a higher distance? Cheers. Don't keep techniques in mind.

Is it better to have one light unit that covers the full area of the tent or use multiple smaller ones? Im using 2 small leds. Is it better to have the ability to dim the lights or just have one power of intensity?

How many watts do I need for my small tent?
I am using a full spectrum LED that draws only 30W from the wall but it might be too weak since my plant is getting lanky. I have moved it closer to the plant but now I am afraid of over-heating. How many watts LED would be sufficient for my 40cmX40cmx120cm tent?

With autoflower when do I switch from veg (5000k-6500k)blue light spectrum to flower lights(3000k-4000k) w/ red infrared ? Should I switch lights right when pistils start showing or wait until after the flower stretch when buds are forming?

Best LEDs or small HID to replace 1000W dimmable HID for small space
I'm using a 1000w HID setup I had from before, running at 50% in a cool tube. It's loud and not efficient. Maybe it's time I switch to LEDs or a 250 HID. I don't want to sacrifice bud quality but I'm low on funds. Any recommendations for a good light that will fill this space?
