answered grow question 5y ago
At this stage, I would go with 24 to 30 inches, as they grow you'll be able to bring the light down to 18 inches.

Black Light 30w
Hi everyone. What is your thoughts on introducing the Black Light (UV) during autoflower flowring stage? Any proof that it will increase THC and CBD ?

Pruning?
Pruning ideas along the stems? Was thinking that some of the branches at the bottom that may never get over the lid of the pot should be snipped off. Also, good idea to keep blue/red light shining under the canopy?

Viparspectra P2000 height and intensity
For those that have experience with the light I'm using, Viparspectra P2000, how high and what intensity percentage should I have it? Currently I'm at 21" at 75% power. Also, I run it 24/7. I have an app on my phone and it says my DLI is at like 56 which seems way too high.

Too early to turn up the dimmible LED light on my seedling?
Unsure if it's too early to turn my light up just yet or wait till more leaves are growing. Currently at 25% (10,000 lux aprox.) using the dimmer for a 120w LED at 20 inches from seedling. Thanks in advance.

Information on led grow light.
I am growing one plant of OG KUSH AUTO strain from Nirvana with light setup of 200watt of white led flood light and 300watt of led grow light. Is this much light enough for a single plant? I am using soil as grow medium.

1 light or 2
I have recently purchased a Mars hydro SP 3000. Great light.. It replaces my Blurple Mars hydro exo 120. I wanted to ask what peoples opinions are about me using both lights for veging. My grow space is not that big. 1.8m x 0.8m and 2.35m high. Will it be too much light and heat?

Light burn or nutrient burn?
Hey guys. The tips of my leaves are starting to turn yellow and I’m wondering if this is a nutrient burn or light burn? I lowered my ppm feeding to about 250 a few days ago and am growing in ocean forest fox farm soil. And the light is an optic 2 running just the cobs at 24”.

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!

DIY Light build
I broke my HLG 200 light but the driver is still good. Does anyone know where I can buy a quantum board or any led without the driver? Maybe a diy light that uses 200w meanwell driver. Thanks

Luce rossa e blu insieme in vegetativa.
Secondo voi accendere led vegetativi luce blu, insieme alla luce rossa può fare male ai piantini. Oppure tenere tutte e due pulsanti della lampada accesi insieme non farà solo che bene alle piantine?

Can you make an Auto flower by changing the light schedule?
Ok, before everyone jumps on this with the obvious answer - I understand that you don’t NEED to change the lighting for an auto to flower, but my question is can you, if you wanted to, flip an auto to flower by changing the light schedule to 12/12?
