Little Help please.

They won't die and they won't get too much light. I'd posit that they'll get a modest amount of light because you're sending in a lot of wattage but your hang height is pretty large and the lights are not as electrically efficient as newer, white LED's.

With the manufacturer name and model number I may be able to find PPFD information but, lacking that, the best answer is the one I've offered above.

Delp. They are Apelila Amazon specials. Lol. With sanan LEDs and yes sir you are correct about the efficiency statement. But in my defense at the time they were pretty decent couple year ago. I prefer outside growing to inside only because of the simplicity it brings along. Tho I start all plants indoors and assure their sex is correct for my wants. Believe it or not I actually three year ago purposely placed a small male in my grow space outdoors and let it do its thing and that lol bastard DID his thing. Lol. Ridled with seeds they where it was fascinating how something so small could impregnate all my plants lol. None the less I haven’t had to purchase seeds since. Also the Apelila lights have a qmol if 1.8 i believe and that is a very low number compared to some of the newer lights the internet provides. I learned about Chinese watts years ago as the at shark light pic I posted earlier in thread said one thousand watts and me being niaze thought. Yoooo 1000 watts for 80 bucks I gotta have that. Because my hid was only 400 my hps150. So I was technology is amazing. Nope. China is good at perception and we Americans are good at believing a lot of shit. So I learned that lesson while back but still at that time didn’t know about PPFD and qmol and such so yes sir they may not be the most effective or efficient but due to the weather and time of year I am not able to upgrade just yet and they actually do a pretty decent job at what they do. Thank you delp8 for your time sir and hope your day is great. For it is only 7 am where I am atm. Peace.

This thread is running its course and it looks like you’ve got some great advice already. Just as a data point, you mentioned that you have a 5x5x7 tent. I run the same size tent, and the most wattage I’ve run in there to date was 700 watts LED. I come from using old school HPS too. I’ll see if I can find a way to load some of my old pics off of one of the SD cards. I’ve still got a 1000 watt and 600 watt setup gathering dust, lol.

Hey brother thanks for the reply and yes sir this is a great gathering of knowledgeable people in the cannabis world. And yeah bro I would love to see some older pics of some old school stuff. And so I unhooked or turned off the two two hunids and left the two threes leaving six hunid so hopefully they will give me ten pounds of dried cured trimmed dense nugs and I will be almost content and a little happy. Lmaooo.
