Grow Questions300w COB CREE Distance?

300w COB CREE Distance?

BigBeautifulWeedstarted grow question 5 years ago

I've put my 6 seedlings under a 300W COB CREE UFO light, atm is a 30cm distance from them, I do hope is not too close. I've only a 140cm height and more would be problematic to manage in the long period.

Hi! If the led pulls 300W from the wall then I think its too close for the seedlings cos they dont need that strong light. You can raise the light to maybe 70cm distance and if the seedlings start to stretch too much you can lower the light. When they are little bit bigger the distance can be something like 40-50cm and even closer in flowering. If the leds are too close you might burn the plants with heat or excessive lights.

If you don't have a lux meter, you can try downloading an app that performs this function to your smartphone. it is not 100% reliable but you can still get an idea if you have a good smartphone. in the first days your seedling needs at least 4000/5000 lux to grow so I advise you to approach the lamp and try with your smartphone to help you adjust the distance.

Lamp to Plant distance - Outdoor.If growing outside, what is the best way to calculate lamp (star) to plant distance for the journal each week based on time of year and rotation of our lovely planet? I am being facetious, of course! It's just a fun question for you all. Hope everyone out there good!

Setting up air cooled refactor.I've got a new air cooled light refractor, a tube like one. I've set it up such as the pic, I'm thinking of putting the extractor where it shows on the pic with the air flow going the way of the arrow, would this be OK? I can't find anything online about setting this one up.

Bloom light on heat goes too high?When turning on the bloom setting the temps seem to be getting up to 84 on the very top of my tent and around 80-82 by the bud sites. Is this too high? Is there any problem turning the bloom high power switch off to let it cool down for a half hour once or 2 a day if too hot?
