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?

Heat, RH or overwatering? Or alltogether?
Hey my fellow growers! The grow reached 32Celsius the last 2 days in the last hour before going into night time. On that time RH goes down to 32% and this seems like it's stressing this lady a bit. Yesterday fed her nuts - maybe a bit too much? Thank you for stopping by!

LED light distance
Hey guys I'm kind of new to growing only been doing it for a little over a year. My girls grow really well they just don't get very tall I'm thinking it's because my lights are too close. Is this correct? Distance is 9 inches above canopy in week 6 growing critical 2.0 autos.

When to lower light intensity?
When is the right time to lower light intensity? I'm on 5th week of flowering, should I keep my lights on max or reduce the power/increase the distance to plants? I have around 1000W of Led's at 35-60cm distance from the tops. I see no burning/bleaching or anything like that.

LEDs for 32x32 tent
New to indoor growing. Set up a 32x32 Vivosun tent. Currently have a giixer 1000w light, but wasn’t feeling the coverage was good enough for several plants. So I just ordered a second one. Do you think 2 giixer 1000w leds is ridiculous overkill? Any thoughts appreciated.

Too little light
I have now tried removing the WPM by smiering 40/60 milk/water on the affected areas. Deep inside the canopy aswell since little to no airflow passes here due to the plant being so deep in the pot. And apart from that the plant recieves 8 hours of light and I cant install a LED.

Low Humidity and high temp or high humidity and low temp?
Do you think it’s better lower temp and higher humidity (like 27 degrees c and 80 % humidity) or higher temp and lower humidity (like 29 degrees c and 60 % humidity)? I’m just waiting for the humidifier but in the meanwhile I have to fix somehow. Thanks!
