Hi mik! Thanks for stepping byWhats your PH? and PPM?
Track your PH everyday.
Auto's are weird, like little pot bonsai plants.
It has crossed my mind, but I thought it through and if you think about it these plants grow in nature with 100.000lux sun shining above them and there is no one to dim the lights for them in the wild, and they thrive just fine.Food for thought, led is very intense for such young plants if possible I'd start your seeds out under smaller light then work yourself up to led. Led is very intense
Those said seeds grow in the understory of the plants canopy shade it's not light they require it's a safe anchorage the seed is looking for before anything else I would set up some white shade cloth over them to reduce the amount of lumes . Just my 2 cents .It has crossed my mind, but I thought it through and if you think about it these plants grow in nature with 100.000lux sun shining above them and there is no one to dim the lights for them in the wild, and they thrive just fine.
I get it being needed for Clones, since they are fragile and cloning does not happen in nature. But seedlings? who is there to babysit them out in the woods?
Led isn't sunlight you must realize that seasonally if plants grew in the wild small seedlings would fall subject to intense lighting if they germed in later in the season when the suns rays are much stronger than early on in the season. Outside environment is perfect as nature intended that's 1 big reason why plants do well outdoors, leds unless catered for young seedling or plants will just blast tons of spectrum!It has crossed my mind, but I thought it through and if you think about it these plants grow in nature with 100.000lux sun shining above them and there is no one to dim the lights for them in the wild, and they thrive just fine.

Great! That will fix them little babiesThose said seeds grow in the understory of the plants canopy shade it's not light they require it's a safe anchorage the seed is looking for before anything else I would set up some white shade cloth over them to reduce the amount of lumes . Just my 2 cents .
I started my seedlings under my 900w LED light (about 4' above seedlings) and had no issues at all.It has crossed my mind, but I thought it through and if you think about it these plants grow in nature with 100.000lux sun shining above them and there is no one to dim the lights for them in the wild, and they thrive just fine.

Good to know!I started my seedlings under my 900w LED light (about 4' above seedlings) and had no issues at all.
Regular, and they've been on 24/0 from the start and just switched to flowering today!! Big bushy beautiful plants!! I had 9 out of my 10 seeds sprout under the LED light too which is better than I've had with CFLs and HPS in the pastGood to know!
Were they regular photos or autos?
I'm wondering if maybe the 24/0 light regiment is too stressful
Very nice!! Beautiful color off the rip!I'm not using led lighting.
But my recent seedlings were sprouted under 8 bulbs of HO T5 in a 4 cu ft space= 3600 lumens per cu ft.
Once sprouted and above ground I turned all 12 bulbs on. Now they are in their second week (13th day) under 5400 lumens per cu ft.

The extra light density is helping them develop well.
The t5 light is more diffused.
And most led lights are too focused.
If I was running led lighting I'd just raise the lights up as high as I could if I were starting seedlings under it.
