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..

Starting photos indoors for June transplantWant to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwiseSetup. Lighting

Nanners?Can someone verify my latest 2 photos look like nanners? If so, I’d love some insight on why my plants seem to be so light sensitive. Most growers seem to blast their plants with upwards of 200w with little issue. Mine is sitting at 80w 22inches and it seems to be struggling!5y ago

Wich of those cheap lights would be advised under 200€ and that would fit both final vegging state and flowering?
The grow space is 80cmx80cmx160cm and keeping in mind that the weather along with the lack of ventilation budget limits my options to colder leds.
Thanks in advanceWeek 1

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

What’s up guys me again😂 I’ve got my hps up and running and I’ve got the temperature under control by having my fan blowing directly at the light and I’ve added a oscillating tower fan. How can I keep the temps up when lights go off? Many thanks!Other. Other

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?
