Light schedule

Ema26started grow question 6y ago

My current light schedule is 18/6. Approx 11:45pm-5:45am I have a girl in flower in there and I’m starting another 3 plants but need to change the schedule to 11:45am-5:45pm What would be the best way to go about doing this? I also need some advice on hps light distances. Thanks!

The best way for you to achieve this would be to just leave the light on until 11 in the morning! From my experience it’s better to have to light on longer than go dark all that time! Good luck

@fusion hey thanks for that I’m downloading it now! No what I mean is I need to change my dark period from being dark at night to being dark in the day instead. Thanks!

Hps distance ... Download lux light meter app or something similar for your cell. 5-10k lux - seedlings 15-45k lux - veg 50k+ for flower. Then just good distance don't burn. Your questions confusing but figure your asking best way to drop your light hours. Can drop by 15 mins each day for no stress. Or just flip it to 12.

Danger of Humidifier Good morning everyone. So I've recently set up my new TS1000 and I'm wondering is humidifier dangerous for LED lights? It's directly under the light 60cm. And how can I regulate the temp in the room without new equipment? It's too high at the moment.

How can I prevent these light burn issues?It seems these Mars hydro lights are not so great. This is my third grow and having the same issue every time. Red stems where they are exposed to light. Yellowing leaves. But when I move the lights further away, stretching is very bad. Should I just get new light?
