It's not to much light anyasy, you're at around 33 watt/foot and a reasonable distance away afaik You can run 55 watt /foot from what I've read and it's good for near max harvest supposedly

switching lights from veg to flower.Hi. Ive seen a lot of growers leave there lights on 24hrs or 18/6. Ive always switched mine to 12/12 when switching to Flowering. Has anybody noticed a difference when leaving lights on 24hr or 18/6 instead of 12/12. Thanks.

Light and water Thank you guys! for watering, I don't know how she can react giving her more than 250ml. I can try but I don't want to drown her. For the light, unfortunately direct sun light arrives from 11.30/12 am to 7pm. Before it is covered by other buildings behind my terrace.

WHAT IS CAUSING MY LEAVES TO CURL? (Day 64 pictures)The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏

Grams per watt What’s the best gm per watt that someone here has gotten on a single plant? I’m aiming for 1gm per watt but doubt that she will yield 315gm once dried.

LEDs lumens is there a method (which does not involve the purchase of a rather expensive device) to measure the lumens present in the growbox? I would like to make sure that the LEDs that I bought have the same performance declared on the package 😕
