@peteandpuy 9 месяцев назад

Excellent. You've confirmed my current process. The foot tall seedlings are all doing well. I have my light at the top of my grow tent and I'll now come down a foot for a week and check again.

@ObjectiveMedia 5 лет назад

Adjust-a-Wings also make Super Spreaders to go with with their high quality adjustable reflectors which dissipate both light and heat more evenly preventing “hot spots”. Thus allowing for closer proximity to the canopy.

Lovely to see an Irish man on RU-vid who know it to a science . Excellent video Shane keep up the good work !!

@highdrogrower5007 6 лет назад

A lot of good information👍 I usually adjust the lights according to stretch or heat stress, if the plant is showing signs of stretch I'll lower the light and leave it for 24 hours. If it's showing signs of heat stress I'll higher the light and leave it for 24 hours, and a good isolatating fan blowing between the lights and the top of the canopy lets me get the light that little bit closer.

@valueape888 3 года назад

YES! My plants fried under the too-close lights last time just as you described. Tried fiddling with LUX phone apps but keeping Leaf Surface Temps just under ambient room temp may save me this time. I have an IR surface temp gun / baby thermometer that I can use! Thank you!!!

@lipptech1 5 лет назад

Could you please do a video specifically targeting how high to set l.e.d. lights as we tend to have to mount led lights higher than hid lights as the led's tend to bleach out the top's of plants due to the light intensity I would suspect. Please elaborate on this topic.

@tonystechchann 3 года назад

With it being two years did you figure it out or is is the circumstances the same for any kind of light doing the diagnosis as shown in the video?

@p1ngu1no 6 лет назад

Hi, I m using the new citizen horticulture series lpw and lprb ...I can't seem to find a sweet spot. I have 7 50w COBs in 90cm...probably too much. I start at 70cm and finished at 40cm...amazing flowers but the plants seem to suffer a lot too. Do you have any info on these new cobs? Thanks a lot.

@njbaquatics4827 4 года назад

Hi Shane the 1200 par you mentioned is that a good guideline for all stages of growth of a medical grow in other words from seed to harvest I have the cheaper meter you mentioned and I’m about to start using it on my next grow for the first time with your Migro 600

If I was using a lux meter on my phone what numbers should I be showing for best results in a 4x8 grow room using K4000 AGLEX IN hanging them to the right height 🤔

@paotg0864 3 года назад

But light intensity in LED could also burn the leaves without necessarily an increase of temperature, so the method of messuring temperature would be better with HPS?

@gillenzfluff8380 5 лет назад

I don't know the par or ppfd of the 10watt 806lumen household bulbs with the domes removed but they are good at 5.5 inches above chilli plants

@g9893 4 года назад

Thanks for the great info ! Can you please make a video comparing a 600w hps adjust a wings vs air cooled hood so we can know how high the air cooled reflector can be to optimize light spread ?

@goodgood2855 4 года назад

Finally a good test of HP's

@SupaStah01 4 года назад

Damn good video. Think my seedlings are getting just a bit too much light... just a spot of color on a couple of their leaves. In going to adjust accordingly. Thanks 😊

@ForPropertyInvestors 2 года назад

Maybe measuring out and tattching a dangling a streamer or bob-wait line on a string from the light so its a reference to the top of the plant or canopy.

@davidlovell7724 10 месяцев назад

Hi Shane a quick question I have 5 lights 3 are 600w and I have one 1500w and a 1000w, because they are different I don't know what distance I should hang them, my gut instinct is telling me to hang the highest wattage higher up and the 600w lower, any info would be much appreciated please.

@23lnp 5 лет назад

Ive got the kingbo 2000w led. I had it 24 inches about the top of canopy but noticed the tips of my leaves were burning and some leaves were feeling dry and papery. Would you recommend hanging about 40 inches ?

@briananderson2314 Год назад

I would be putting the light at the top especially if you haven't got a dimer.

@alcurtis93 5 лет назад

Are lux or FC measurements of any use with grow lights? With LEDs they don't give off much heat so surely that's not a reliable way to suss the height?

@MIGROLIGHT 5 лет назад

Lux measurements ar not accurate for photosynthetic light, they do not measure red and blue light properly. As LED's don't give off too much heat they can be closer to the plants. Your skin is a good guide to physical heat detection and when it is too hot for life.

@orocovis1000 2 года назад

Hello Mike, I’m going to grow mini orchids in a terrarium. How high should I hang my grow lights?

@mercdod4405 2 года назад

Can I just adjust an LED light as low as possible so the footprint appears to cover the plants and then adjust the intensity knob to achieve the desired ppfd based on my iphone using photone app?

@jacobmiskell676 3 месяца назад

I am trying to figure that out as well... I have a ac affinity 400w Ionboards44 and they recommend this n that but for me I have it on the lowest possible setting for light when they are seedling and going into veg.. and let the plant tell me.. they'll start praising or reaching up to the light in a good way not that stringy stretch.

@jacobmiskell676 3 месяца назад

You can use app make sure it's calibrated right a phone camera can only do so much but for budget purposes gives you an idea at least what range you in

@andrewjackson8089 9 месяцев назад

My plants are growing tight and short. No sign of nutrient deficiency, but after 8 wks they are only 12 inches tall….someone has told me to lift my lights and make them stretch….what do you think?

@jeanninegrant5959 6 лет назад

as close as is possible. put your hand above canopy have light lowers til you feel to much heat, light movers are a good investment

@user-nd2zc3um8y 5 лет назад

Leds are not problematic about heat but about light intensity

@zuccatojaka3254 4 года назад

What do I do if my plant is larger than 10cm (just the stem)?

@markwhyte195 Год назад

I'm growing a BLUEBERRY CHEESE OG and I need to know have I got to feed her both bloom and boost together or boost only as it's my first auto grow.

@torrielandsman4625 3 года назад

I've noticed that you never use parabolic reflectors! I use a parabolic reflector with a 1000w HPS and find that I can put the light as close as two feet above my plants depending on the strain, sativas seem to do the best with the lights less than three feet away. also I noticed you don't use defusers with the adjustawing any particular reason? they really cool down the hotspot and allow the light to be closer to the canopy! I believe that LED's have their place but if you want to be productive nothing replaces metal halide and HPS for growing hemp.
