Oh if you can get a good app try that i don’t have a mobile phone so I like my meter I use it in my garden outdoors as well for 25 bucks it’s paying for itself every time I turn it on ...OD- will do. I was planning on downloading one of the available lux meter apps. Seems like some Farmers on here use them as they screenshot their readings. Or should I purchase a digital unit like the one in your picture? Thank you for your advice.
How far away do you have your light? Is it dimmed? ThanksA Grow Diary-- Spider Farmer

I asked the same question via message and here's the answer I was given. As for dimming you'll have to play around with that yourself in order to dial in the correct lux. I'm in the seedling stage now at roughly 35% dimming and 24 inches above plants. Hope this helps
growth stage hanging height
Germination 24-30 inches
Seeding 24 inches
Veg 18-24 inches
Flower 12-18 inches
Good luck with your grow, bswe22!
Being a new farmer I too had no idea what dimming % was best. Thankfully the good folks on this site steered me in the right direction. As others have stated you have to dial-in your lux according to the plants growth stage. At the advice of others here I downloaded an app that people seem to use quite a bit, or you could purchase a light meter, and I've dialed-in my lux easily.
Quick heat question.......I have a 2x2 grow box with 150w hps. Good ventilation and ballast outside. How does the 1000 compare to my 150hps as far as heat output? Thanks in advance.
