Hallo . Ik zit in de derde week bloei van mijn royal gorilla planten ze staan onder een hps lamp van 600 watt als ik nu nog een extra lamp van 400 watt zou plaatsen zou dat de opbrengst vergroten of een verspilling van energie . Groeten Gorilla

Extra light always helps. More light can make your buds denser and bring you a bigger yield, also more THC. The cost for another 400 watts for a months time is minimal. Lets say it cost an extra 40 bucks.....the extra light will more than pay for itself.

Hi buddy :-)
I would say it only makes sense if you add a CO2 system. However, this assumes that all parameters are 100% in the perfect range, since the high temperatures from the second lamp would not be bad with this system.
Before that, you should switch to Hydro or even better Aero. You also get better yields or do not need as much electricity as switching to a second lamp and CO2 system :-)
Hope I could help :-)

Man with you already running a 600 w light especially hps I wouldn’t waste the money in electricity if was you! Even if you do get a slightly bigger harvest if won’t amount for the extra usage and your 600w light is enough! 🙏

Hello fellow growers :D thx a lot
Firstly, is the reason why my plants (especially cookies) are very slightly curling/folding at the ends of the leaves because the LED is too powerful?(Reason to be worried?)
Secondly, should I start adding nutrients? Just 1/4 of Bio-grow for now?5 years ago

600w hpsWouldnt let me PM. I have a 5ft long 3ft wide 6ft tall white walled grow room and am thinking about a 600w HPS light now. Will this fill the entire room? If so how many plants should I plant? Will this one suffice? Would a 400w hps be more suitable for this space?

Auto and regular plants in one box.I got an auto plant in a box, waiting for flowering to start very soon. Light schedule 20/4. Now I planted a new photoperiodic seed in a same box. What should I do, keep the 20/4 light schedule before the auto plant finishes and after change to 18/6? Or change it right now?
