When to put the light on?
Hey there, Do you need to put the light on the pots directly after you planted the seeds in the ground? Or do you need to wait untill they poke true the ground and then put the light on them?

Light hanging distance
I’m not sure how high to hang my light. My plants seem to be all staying extremely squat and not stretching, though all seem healthy. I’ve been fiddling between 18-28 inches and 600-800 ppfd (ios meter app) and I can’t find a distance that seems to make them happier. D26 autos

About the 1200w light
So I did already in fact order the 1200w led light for the 60x60x140 before asking for advise on it, which was stupid of me. Is it possible to use the light with the door open and fans to decrease hot points?

direct HOT sunlight on week one?
Should I put her under direct sunlight? Temperature here reaches 32°C-89°F and it's not so windy, Im scared it could burn the tiny plant, I have been keeping both plants under a white mosquito net that makes the light less hot and they get some direct light untill 10 am (see pic)

What % to keep lights at during late veg
My question was around what power % I should have my lights at? My light is 300watts so I am assuming 50% = 150watts? Is this enough to continue vegging my plant? I have noticed the growth isn't as vigorous.

'Claws' on tips just after flowering started. Previous answers help - it is a bit worse. I keep a perfect VPD. What should I do? Flower wouldnt f
I'm confused. For the first 3w I used LED as instructed 30-40cm, I had ~43cm,100%dim, everything was fine. When the bloom started yellow claws appeared and still there, maybe a bit worse, with 53cm and 75%dim. Mostly on BPP, one more plant showed her claws today aswell. 😓
