Kingbrite 240W
Anyone else using Kingbrite 240W lights? I’m running 2 in a 4x4 tent. About 30” from canopy dimmed way down. Just shut 1 off, feels like too much light in early veg. Curious on the lighting distance and intensity during veg and flower

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks

LIGHT SPECTRUM, is that a good one for growing cannabis?
Hi guys, in the future I plan to upgrade from the current 2x2 box/150w LED. I was thinking of a 4x4 area with 500w LED. I came across an interesting 500w led lamp for quality/price and this is the spectrum chart, does it seem suitable for growing cannabis?

Light schedule
I am doing an outdoor grow and also have a grow room set up for germination. Outside is only getting about 14 hours of light, is it beneficial to bring my girls in under my LED's for 4 hours to make sure they're getting a full 18 hours of light? then bring them back outside
