Light height
Hello all I have a mars hydro tsw 2000. I was noticing the recommended height is 24 inches for seedlings. Is this at 100% intensity? That's well over 1000 ppfd by my meter. I thought seedlings could only handle 200-400?

Changing light cycle on seedlings?
Can I run autoflower seedlings under 24/0 light cycle until they reach mature veg stage, and then move them into an 18/6 light cycle? I’m starting seedlings in a space tote, then transferring to a large tent to mature. Will the light cycle change have negative consequences?

Is the light far enough away?
Id like to make sure I'm not wrong in positioning the TS600 60cm above the rockwool cubes for germination.

Best LEDs or small HID to replace 1000W dimmable HID for small space
I'm using a 1000w HID setup I had from before, running at 50% in a cool tube. It's loud and not efficient. Maybe it's time I switch to LEDs or a 250 HID. I don't want to sacrifice bud quality but I'm low on funds. Any recommendations for a good light that will fill this space?

Are these stretching? What should I do for the 2x top that barely sprouted?
Viparspectra xs2000. Just moved it to a 25" distance and 50% light intensity hoping it'll help, but unsure if it'll burn them? What should I do? Top 2x seeds JUST sprouted and are just barely above the soil. How to accommodate all plants regarding light intensity and distance?

BudXs
Which of the two options do you choose and why: Option 1: 1440w over 40sqft giving 36w per sqft Option 2: 1440w over 48sqft giving 30w per sqft. The difference is an extra 2x4 of grow space. Do i go for more lumens or more plants? This is my first LED setup

Pruning?
Pruning ideas along the stems? Was thinking that some of the branches at the bottom that may never get over the lid of the pot should be snipped off. Also, good idea to keep blue/red light shining under the canopy?

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. 🙏

Fluoro and LEDs together
In addition to the 24W T5 Fluoro, I will be adding an 80W LED Lamp 12" from the tops. This lamp has 3 spectrum settings: Red&Blue, Warm White, and all 3. Which setting is best for veg and how will it affect the plants by having both types of lighting? Thanks
