Grow lamp setting veg or bloom or both?

Riptorchstarted grow question 5y ago

For my grow lamp settings this early on should I be using the VEG And Bloom spectrums simultaneously? Or just leave in Veg? Since these are Autos I wasn't sure if switching the spectrums was as important as maximizing light.

I recommend leaving it on only veg for the 1st couple weeks, then putting the bloom switch on also. The bloom switch is mainly red spectrum lighting which will encourage a little more stretching, but in my opinion, it is better to have a diverse light spectrum. good luck!

Just leave the veg light on, only. I don't do autos, but once they change over, I would then turn on the bloom light,leaving the veg light on as well.

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. 🙏
