In some places and not the whole day.

A 250w hps is pretty much perfect for a 2x2. Should end up with the same light level as 600w in a 1sqm tent.

It's not strange. Govts don't mandate higher efficacy and consumers don't understand. There are places where you would find the same bulbs with twice the filaments or diodes because higher efficacy is mandated.

Over watering in soil can take a long to recover from. Drench the pot and the roots can't function. Now the pot dries mostly because of evaporation, but it dries top down so the actual root zone stays too wet for a long time. Roots die because of lack of oxygen and plant is still stunted even...

They are looking great now. Keep them healthy and you'll have a great harvest. Nice setup too.

Five hundred or a thousand dollars seems exorbitant for a clone. However the price seems much more reasonable when it's placed next to a ten thousand dollar clone.

Or boards. A bar fixture could have the bars move and it would be a better fixture for it, but probably not so much it would make sense at all.

Yeah, the spectrum does change plant morphology and in lettuce's case yield depends a lot on it. I'm not saying spectrum is irrelevant for us either, but I am saying the differences in the end result between reasonable spectrums is not that big. I don't think most of us are on a level where...

Look up bruce bugbee's videos. They prove green is used efficiently by the plants. There's no difference in plant mass between white light and just red&blue.

From what i glanced there was some basic level info and some bs to promote their lights. Should've just stuck with explaining how you can make more efficient lights with just blue and red instead of claiming a magic spectrum. Then again: they don't want to tell us how much light their fixtures...

Why do we want to read that ad?

Blue and red chips have much higher efficacy than white light leds, because energy is not wasted in converting the light with phosphors. The science we actually have says the spectrum doesn't matter that much.

Very little significance. Sure, go ahead and get the spectrum you want, but the differences will not be much. A regular white light led alone will grow very well. Redder spectrum grows a little longer nodes and bluer shorter nodes. UV or near uv may, perhaps, give a tiny bit more thc, but maybe...

Bend them instead. No stress. One string around the stem at the bottom to keep it up right and another higher up the other way to bring the top down.

If I had a closet I would use it, mostly because the grow would be out of sight. Nothing wrong with a tent grow wise. Your closet is a little narrow for my liking, but you could make it work easy. Height is not a problem with leds. Just train the plants short.

Any that produce about 6000-7000 umol/s combined. Realistically you will save about a kw in light (and heat!).

What's the definition of a smol plant? I grow small(ish) plants, but they don't yield that small. Are they small plants then? Maybe not, but atleast they are short! Candy kush @7w 12/12. The pot is about a foot wide.

Looks to me like op got under your skin. Why are you so invested in this?

Yeah. SSH is a good, but you get everything from 7 week phenos to 16+ week phenos.

I usually state a fact. Then repeat it in another form once or maybe twice. I would be dumb for continuing beyond that. And this thread certainly wouldn't have 21 pages if you all didn't insist on repeating yourselves.
