Hi mate thanks for your reply, i think its around 42,000 at full power but i could be wrong!Look fine to me… could be a bit warm. What light cycle are you running?
Keep temps around 75-80f (24-26c) as to high can cause some stretching. What kelvin is your light source? Under 3500k will contribute to stretch. Humidity 55-60%
Kelvin is color temp not the luxHi mate thanks for your reply, i think its around 42,000 at full power but i could be wrong!
Light cycle is 18/6,
Il have to dig out the paperwork for that light and i will correct myself if im wrong, awesome il drop my humidity a little.
Cheers mate
Awesome would that cause the rootball to become progressively lower in the next pot and prevent a "full" root base when i pot up into veg?Mine were pretty much like that..once i up potted i buried near half of them stem ☺
Ah ok, erm well i have no idea lol, ive posted a web link for the light im using but still no answer on kelvins.Kelvin is color temp not the lux
I think most healthy seedlings pop up like that. I plan on it and usually try to start them lower in a solo cup then fill in soil as it stretches up. you can bury them right up to the primary leaves or just let it go...support if needed with a paper clip and they'll be fine.Ah ok, erm well i have no idea lol, ive posted a web link for the light im using but still no answer on kelvins.
Brilliant mate, thanks so much guysI think most healthy seedlings pop up like that.

Dont know if this is what your referring to mate but thats pretty much all i can find online about this light.Look fine to me… could be a bit warm. What light cycle are you running?

Yes lower in the nxt pot but does not affect them...heres what mine looked like potting up at day 7 into larger pot and heres today..day 20.Awesome would that cause the rootball to become progressively lower in the next pot and prevent a "full" root base when i pot up into veg?
Ah awesome mate thank you!!What Aqua is talking about is this:

That is the spectrum of your light per the manufacturer (although these are often just pretty pictures and not based on reality)
What you see here is a distinct shift towards red with a spike in blue and a heavy green - way more than most. That red leaning light triggers hormones in the plant to suggest it is in shade and to grow fast to get to daylight. Blue on the other hand says I am in full daylight, focus on roots and leaves vs. stalks.

Would a lower root base have any effect on growth, yeild or the plant drinking as much as it should as only the lower half of the pot has roots and not the whole pot? Maybe im overthinking things.....Yes lower in the nxt pot but does not affect them...heres what mine looked like potting up at day 7 into larger pot and heres today..day 20.View attachment 1267945View attachment 1267947View attachment 1267948
Based on what I see in the link you provided, there seems to only be a dimmer. If that is the case, the entire spectrum will be unchanged as you twist that, but the intensity will change.Ah awesome mate thank you!!
So judging by the specs of that light, does turning the light % up or down effect its light spectrum? Or will it stay the same just at different output?
Sorry about all the noob questions guys im new-ish to growing and these bloody LEDs confuse the hell out of me and thats without understanding power %, hanging heights, PPFD and so on lol. I just thought that power was displayed as WATTAGE but i couldn't be further from the truth it seems hahahaha.
So with that graph above, do ypu guys think im in the right range of 20% power and hanging height of 24"?
Thanks again guys and thanks for your patience
Wow....thanks that's never been explained so well short concise exactly what I needed to understand about it all......I see a pretty pic, I've heard Dr.B.B & others but you nailed it so It makes more sense to me....Fk I have red lights..Blue lights.full spec and why????? because they said to it would help.....whyy?????.......layman's terms & short sentences are all I can under stand....tks...lolWhat Aqua is talking about is this:

EDIT: there is also a significant far red component here that seems virtually unbelievable. That hump past 700nm. That is also a shade trigger. Turn that off if there is a far red switch or dimmer on your light.
.not at all.i have up potted into another pot and up potting again into there final pot in 2 weeks...and yes your over thinking it ☺..Would a lower root base have any effect on growth, yeild or the plant drinking as much as it should as only the lower half of the pot has roots and not the whole pot?
