Ps: the grow bulbs do have more of the red spectrum
Ps: the grow bulbs do have more of the red spectrumThanks friend, one more follow up question if you don’t mind, but I was using 3000 K bulbs at first when I decided to flower, I swapped them out for grow bulbs that emit PPF, I seen on some threads that you can use these for both vegetative and flowering. Will this also affect my yield?
thoose lights won't be enough for flowering, the plant will need a lot more light for the buds to swell well
Actually no, I’ve added two grow bulbs that emit PPF, and a led grow light, along with an orange 3000k led light. These are the lights I put in.i m gonna repeat:
the lights you've added prolly won't change much, how many watt total with all the lights you actually use, and what kind of bulb you've added (look like some everyday 10-20w led bulbs) ?
thoose lights won't be enough for flowering, the plant will need a lot more light for the buds to swell well
There actually 20-40w ledthis are some 9W led bulbs ... not enough , especially for a plant starting getting that tall ...
you want minimum 150W to flower a plant that size ... and even like that bud too far from light will be larf
ppf is just the measurement of efficience of light emission at a certain distance from the light source, all kind of light will have a different ppf value at different distance from the light source .... LED are more efficent than HPS,MH,CMH, FLUO or incandescent light for exemple, for the same watt, ppf will be higher.Also, there not regular bulbs..they emit ppf.
it won't look like that:It won’t what? Btw these are the same “lights”
Your lights are dogshit. You wasted your money on those lights, then you wasted more money by buying more of them when you were told to buy better lights. At some point you have to accept you're a student, instead you're arguing with people here who have been doing this for years.It won’t what? Btw these are the same “lights”
and not only your total Watt is low for a plant that size, but your lights are too far from most of the buds wich decrease even more efficiency. ( and you're with a dilema here, too close they won't spread enough across the whole plant, and too far efficency will decrease too much)what's important is they are 9W LED wich is not enough. The one with many arms is 15-20W watt i checked for another thread few days ago on amazon. and i have no idea about the one in circle but obviously not much Watt as well.
the only real important thing about your lamp is what i circled in red in previous post:There actually 20-40w led

the more you get far from an artificial light source the more ppf value will decrease.
they are definetly not much different than regular everyday led bulb, just slightly different spectrum (most prolly a mix of more 3000K than 5000K leds), that doesn't change that much for the plant ...

you'll get some buds that you can enjoy, most prolly airy and larf, but don't expect big dense and compact buds, you want more light power close to the buds to achieve that result

With white pistils growing more and more, the bud gets fatter and fatter.. but now I see these micro buds.. will they be as good as the main buds?
