20 hours, how many seconds in 20 hours? 60x60x20=72,000s Ppfd x 72,000s will give you the exact micro moles. You want 40 dli? 40,000,000÷72000= 555.555 the recise ppfd to use to reach 40moles in 1 daylight cycle.

The max DLI you want to put on autoflowers is 44 without CO2. You can experiment with that number but that will get great results.

I'd say between 30-40 Dli. Sometimes they will take the top end of that scale Sometimes the lower end. Start at 30 and see how they react.

Light strength
2 of my autos have been harvested and now I just have 1 mature plant mid flower and I've started my 3 other seedlings. I've got a tsw 2000 w/310 wts. Should I keep my lights at 100% for maximum growth or should I back off a touch to say 75 or 80%?

Electrical power calculation
Actual power consumption of lights is lower than led manufactorer says. 25 leds of 3W each = 75W plus an internal fan plus some other circuits,Total power should be more than 75W and i calculated 58.3W overall. Vac=220 , I=0.265A Any ideas?

How to switch to flowering
It's been about 5 weeks from germination. I think we're ready to switch to flowering. I'm just not certain on how to go about it. Do I gradually reduce 18/6 of the veg light down to 12/12 (over a week?) then pop in the flower bulb? Or do I just make a hard switch?

Light Intensity
Hi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?
