Looking for unsponsored responses... need light......
starphishstarted grow question 5 years ago
Looking for unsponsored responses... need light...my car cost 1000$ and I can't justify anything close to that. Flowering a 4x4 area..should I wait for tech to develop and HPS in the meantime? Convince me otherwise with your experiences! #budget

Well for a 4x4 (im guessing feet) you probably going to get 4-6 plants. 600w would be fine. There are plenty of cheap led on the market. I use a 250w vipraspectra I got for £75 for my 2x2 room!

Height Spider Farmer SE3000 week 5 flowerPAR increased to 600 PPFD, done by lowering the light to 35 cm above canopy.
What do you think? is that too low? I'm using a Spider Farmer SE3000 (300 Watt). Anybody experience with this light? How high did you hang it from week 5 of flower to the end?Week 13

Light came on for about 30 seconds about 3 hours into the dark cycleSo Im 3 days into 12/12 and I bumped my timer last night and my light came on suddenly during the dark cycle. I immediately shut it right back off. Was I wrong in shutting it back off right away? Should I be worried about anything?2 years ago

Changing Lighting ScheduleThe days on the plants are since planting, so i was going to keep the vegetative light schedule until 5 weeks since planting, then start moving towards a 12/12.
Is it even optimal for an autoflower to have a traditional 12/12 lighting schedule during flowering?

Opinions on progressSo this is my first solo grow in a completely new setup (previously only grown in collaboration with a friend). Started off with a cheap blurple light. Very slow start then upgraded to a mars hydro TS1000 2 weeks prior to flowering.
Topped at 35 days

2 plants, 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000’s, need help with pot size/tent size configurationMy plan is to flower these 2 girls in a SCROG under 2 Mars Hydro TSW 2000s (2x300W actual). I’m debating whether to flower them in 5 gallon plastic pots in a 2x4, 10 gallon pots in a 2x4, or 10 gallon pots in a 4x4. Does more area = more yield, or am I thinking about this wrong?Week 5

Light IntensityHi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?2 years ago

Trying to get setup rightI know I prob need to get a nicer light and ditch all the crap lights but for now I have what I have. Perhaps after some success I may be able to get a new light to replace all of them. But how far should it be? 2 feet above rockwool cube? And what watts per plantSetup. Lighting
