Right lighting at day 6 - fluo or HI as both available
Right lighting at day 6? Very happy that all germination looking good on day 6 from seed. I could either continue with this compact fluorescent bulb (15 cm from tiny first leaf) for another week or two OR switch to full HI 250w immediately (30cm from plant) Thanks!

I’m here again with another silly question Or not I’m not sure🤣 I have a 600w ballast with a 600&400 switch on it and I’m wanting to downgrade to a 250w lamp. Will my ballast power it okay or will it kill it🤔 or should I get a 400? Thanks!

Switching from led to hps for flower?
Howdy, does anyone switch from a blurple led board for veg, to a hps or similar style light for flower? Why, why not? Is it worth the little extra hassle to buy and install? I like my led just fine, but wondering if there’s more to be gained in flavor, quality & yield. Thanks!

I have 240w lm301B and now bought 301h. 120x120 tent. Temperature is 28 around
Landlord asked why electricity so high? thats a big problem its good that he cant come to the house because of C haha but thats fucked up because i bought new 240w lm301H so its gonna be hard to use them both.which is better? Consider electricity/yield 1light:%100 dim 2:60-70 dim

For folks with Mars Hydro TSW 2000 experience. What dim did/are you keeping your light on during weeks 2-3? I have done research and looked at MH data, but I would like tried and true experiences. Current dim is set to 2 notches below 50 at 18in. Thanks.

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light

Hi guys, My LED light from my tent just stopped working, it might have been the humidity or straight water in there. The new lights might arrive 4/5 days to arrive. Do you think my plants are going to die? you can check my diaries if you need. Thanks for your help.
