Did I understand that correctly It is advantageous if the temperature is as low as possible during flowering (between 20 and 25C) messured on the highest point My humidity is between 55-60% (danger of mold ?) The distance of the LED should be wider in bloom than in veg phase ?Why

I had bud rot for 2 or 3 years almost in every grow. Since i move air a lot inside and have good air change from and into tent - have 0 bud rot for last 6 years indoors. Sometimes in late flower during night, especially first night after watering i have spikes up to 70% rh and still all good. 55-65 is my average and i have no problem in UK. Lower temps in flower wont let plant to strech out, otherwise penetration of light looses potency deeper into canopy, so chubby plants are better. Plus high temps in flower makes bud itself more airy and not dense, 20 could be too low tho, i would have 22-24 during day, 19-20 for nights. If control is possible ;))) Distance is very specific, i blast a lot, mine never bigger than 30-40 cm from top of canopy. People count dli, i work more with simple lux app to get to know light, but generally from many tested - none needed diming or higher height with established or flowering plants. Tested not one model of Mars Hydro, plus bought few leds by my own.

as far as i know temperatures in that range would be the best in flowering, since you don't want any stress. humidity in that range isn't perfect but it doesn't need to be as long as you got enough fans blowing air through your tent. try to keep it under 60 and you will be just fine with enough airflow. where did you read that with the LED? check the manual from the LED normally it does say how far away it should be and those are mostly safe numbers, so you can even go a little bit closer then but if you do that, watch closely so if there is heat stress you can dial it back instantly. for my LED its 45cm in veg with 75% power and 35cm in flowering with 100%, but that doesn't mean it's the same for you.
