I dropped 20 on one of these. No more guessing. (there are also free apps for smartphones that some say are accurate) After checking my flower cabinet with this I realized I was running my light way too far away. From what I've read safe areas are 5K lux for clones, 10 for seedlings, 20 to 60 for veg and 30 to 70K for flowering. My last run I used 16 to 20 for flowering and came up with some decent nugs. This run I will be at 40 to 60, and they are already looking better than last time. I can tell these will be bigger by the way they stacked up.I think I've found a home for my MLI plants so I want to move my seedlings into my big room under the LED's.
I'll only need one for a while but I don't know how high to raise it.
Seedlings don't have much room for error as far as burning.
So being a noob, what do the powers that be have to say?
TIA!

Panty hose from the dollar store. Hey, I got the legs for 'em!I wanted to share something I've been using and have finally decided I like them.
They are empty 3"×4" tea bags.
I use these for my guano tea.
3 tbs. Will fdit in one, I put a small air stone in before tying it off and hook to a T on a air stone line to bubble through the bag.
Cleanup is so much easier I kinda like making tea again!
Anyhow, a great improvement for guano tea production and I can fill numerous bags ahead and use as needed.

I have 2 2’ 4 bulb units. One I bought, (Hydrofarm), quite a few years ago, at least 10 years now.I've used T5's exclusively for 15+ years.
Do all seedling, veg and clone work under them. The clone one is 2', the other 2 4' are 6- 54w HO.
