Are 2000 watt LED lights safe for seedlings

[Jmaninthemiddle420]

Hi there, not a new grower here but have kind of a beginner question. I am upgrading my indoor grow set up to a vivosun 4 by 4 by 7 tent with a 2000 watt light and exhaust fan which I’ve never used In a grow b4 but I’ve heard the exhaust fan makes a difference. My question here as said in the title is if the VS 2000 watt led light is safe for cannabis seedling bc I’m so used to starting under a seedling light in my closet which i feel is a waste plus I get nervous transplanting even though I am using air pots which make transplants easy. Also I’m just starting to get familiar with autos which don’t like transplants so pls help.

If it has a dimmer you will be fine. If not. Raise the lights all the way to the top. Then adjust as plant grows.

If you have a lux instrument, then just can just automatically find that sweet spot.

Just checked the website it has a dimmer down to 40% power so that it can be used for seedlings at about 14-18 inches

Right now I’ve got 4 seedlings under a 2000 watt older Bestva with veg/bloom, but not dimmable, set on veg, it’s 18 inches above the seedlings, I do it all the time, no issues.

one thing to keep in mind most box led lights are by thumb rule 10% they have a deceiving way of counting the leds so in most case a 2000Watt led is in most cases is really 200 watts the Besatv a 2000W is 275 watt it is messed up the way theyu do it but if you pay 150 -200 bucks for 2000watt light figure it is 200 to 280 real watt I learned that the hard way

Yeah, it's called "lying." In any other industry, the multiple class-action lawsuits that would have already occurred would have halted it before now.

Yep they lie , could have saved myself some typing But @TorturedSoul is right on point
