And that's perfectly honourable. But there's really no reason to simulate sunrise and sunset. On the contrary, you're going to have periods when photosynthesis is too low and you'll be consuming energy for very little. By having your light come on straight away at the power level you've set for the day, you're optimising your yield.

You're making life too complicated for yourself. Your plants will cope very well with sudden changes in light and don't count on me to calculate the DLI. :3

Reverse flowering time could I reverse the time when putting into bloom and switching from a 12/12 program? I could turn on at 00:00 and turn off the light at 12:00, because honestly I keep them on during the night and I turn them off at noon and I would like to do the opposite, can I?

Would this be an upgrade or downgrade?Currently using a 400w HPS on a 18/6 schedule for my autoflower. I've just seen this being sold on FB and wondered whether this might be as efficient/better/worse than what I already have Appreciate that it's a 'budget' light, but still looks pretty good 🤷‍♂️🏼
