Mars Hydro 1000W
Foxtrotoscarstarted grow question 5y ago
Is the mars hydro 1000w enough for the three plants that I have growing as I have replaced the 2 other leds. Should I keep one in along side the mars or run it solo?

The 1000 is a 150 watt QB.
It depends on how big they get as its an area dependency.
As long as things are contained within less than 3x3 ... Yes
I run a TS1000 and a 600w HID, but I wont turn on the HID until things get big enough to be outside the Mars light pattern.
You might want to hedge your bets and keep one of the old leds hanging.
The old 30 watts of LED per square foot is not a bad guide but really does not reflect the new QB lights they are just better..

Do you lower light intensity and temps towards the end of flower?So I’m in mid flower, start of week 7 to be exact. I’m curious on when you guys start pulling back light intensity and going with a little cooler temps. I’m running a 240W S33 from AC infinity in a 3x3.
Should I be going strictly off of PAR or VPD at this point.Setup. Lighting

LED distance to plant adviceInterested in how close I can get my 630w LED with a rating of 2.7μmol/W and 1700 PPF to my canopy. I had it hung 48cm (19 inches) on 380w and just upped it to 500w day 8 in flower. Does this sound too close at 500w or is this ok? Temp is 25C (77F) humidity 55%.

LUX meter grow questionCan someone check out the LUX meter video and tell me how I should be positioning my lights? I think maybe I have too much light on them.
My meter says 600 (x100) that puts me at like 60000 lumen. The converter I used put that to 1541.36 umol/s/m2 which is a lot of light alreadyWeek 7
