Lighting question

[SeniorMoments]

I am using 1000 w LED in my grow closet .
3 plants in 4 th week of flower .
All are healthy and vigorous W/ multiple bud sites and crazy white pistils .
Should I only use the red color light now or both red & blue ( w some green ) ?

If they are in flower both for sure! I use Aglex 1200 watt and I run both all the time

What about the closet ceiling light ?
its a soft white LED .
U think that extra light would make any difference ?

I use 3 of the 1200 watt lights. The better the light the better the end product. Just keep the light at least 24 inches from top of canopy

The simple answer with light is the more the better no matter the source.But grow lights and sun are best.I use both window light and grow lamps when i can.

Day 24 added led now im running two led one hps with occasional window sun.

Nice tent full!

how do you like those phlizon lights? i've ran a few grows with them and using them in the veg tent now. I got some really nice results last grow with 2 of the "2000w" on the sides and a "3000w" in the center in an 8x4 tent. temps were a challenge at times but all around not too bad.

No. You run your lights on a timer right? Dont worry about the ceiling light.

You might forget to turn it off one time and mess up your flowers.

When you say 1000w - whats the draw at the plug? That's the wattage of the lamp not the "equivalent" wattage. There's big diff.

A TRUE 1000w is a lot of light. I don't really know of any LED fixtures out there that actually draw 1000w at the wall. There likely are a few, but not many. That much watts gets hot fast.

Plants also need blue light when blooming, so please turn on both red and blue light!
