thanks for watching everybody! I published this on YT just cause it's such an important episode. See all the content you've missed the last few weeks on my Off-YT platforms! Linked to in the video description!
I acquired some seeds and 6 out of 18 sprouted in my germination chamber. now i'm scared that i don't know the genetics or even strain/gender yet so here's hopin… just one hot mama is all i need. I'm wondering, what should i do with my light ratios with an unknown plant? just 12/12 for a given general period then all light? thanks for any responses. i'm very new to this and it's my medicine for a lot of things now!
For me these numbers(everywhere shows same numbers) about ppfd for each stage dont work.I ve par meter and every time i try catch these numbers my plants stress.Do i do something else worng or its marketing?
My issue is my led lights at 15% dim is already at 550 par am in veg I try putting it to 25% amd it goes to 1000 par it’s a 600 watts do I keep it at 15% meanwhile the manufacturer recommended 100% for veg ? Can u help me out
I have a 3000 watt full spectrum LED light and I have little baby plants that are about the length of a middle finger how high should this 3000 light be from those plants without burning them or hurting them I actually have the light about 4 ft from them right now is that too high
Heat stress is easy to spot but light stress is a completely different beast and much trickier to resolve, brighter isn't always better, took me a while to realize the difference.
Pt.2…..if you want fast growth instead of those stunted plants yajl grow. Seedlings 140-175 ppfd first 7 days, 200-250 next 5 days and finish seedlings off at 275-300 ppfd (never ever 400). Vegetation 350-400 ppfd first 5 days and so on and so on.
Pt.1…Why would anyone in they right mind ever put 400 ppfd over a damn seedling if u can out 400 under a plant in veg. Think about that. Do not put no damn 400 ppfd over no damn seedlings. Don't give that much light meant for a big plant to a baby, that's why yahl killing yahl plants so young from to much light.

We're legal now, not just Ole Miss
I just downloaded a ppfd meter app on my android phone. It works great 👍

Is his eyes AI?
I loved the statement about the university 👍

Stop the dribble and get to the point ffs
Can you please recommend a decent par meter? Thank you in advance
And if measured in lumens, how many lumens do you need for 1x1m (3×3')?
Amazing video
This helped me, thanks. Of course I subbed.
Gracias!
I have a plant in flower at 850 par no Co2 some spots are at 900 ppfd
over 1000ppfd and you need to add carbon dioxide for optimum growth

Anyone tell you you sound just like Tom Green?

Do you know what I like about this channel…… the set…… that background is as pro as you can ask for I reckon…🙃
Can you use more than 600 ppfd in veg?
Did your sponsors tell you to lose the incognito look?
When I have a question who do I go to 100% LEX no I don't have a brown nose just like my human wikipedia!
Nicely explained. Greetings from South Africa
You can now get a par meter as an app👍
Right now I've got my seedlings at 800 to 1000 par outdoors showing no signs of stress
How about Autoflowers? What PPFD would be ideal for Autoflowers due to lengthier light cycles?
I have a 3000 watt full spectrum LED light and I have little baby plants that are about the length of a middle finger how high should this 3000 light be from those plants without burning them or hurting them I actually have the light about 4 ft from them right now is that too high
i do hate amazon…
