I’m using Mars Hydro TS 1000 LED lights. I can’t raise the lights any higher above my babies. I think light burn is starting to happen.
If I turn down the brightness of the lights with the dimmer switch, will that work instead of raising the lights? I couldn’t find anything in the manual or online, so hopefully my grow gurus will be able to let me know
Thanks for the advice! A few of the top leaves are starting to roll up. They were watered 2 days ago and get misted 3x a day. The only thing I can think of is the light is too close. They’re 15” away from the top buds.
I had this issue on my last grow. I blamed the light (which was putting off a ton of heat) but in reality, the temp in my tent was too high.
No matter how much I played with my exhaust fan and fresh air in fan, I couldn’t get the temps down. My light has two dimmer switches. One for Veg, one for Flower. I ended up putting the veg light down to about 20% which made a significant different in the temps. Doesn’t seem to have affected the plant at all. (was in flower when I dimmed the veg light)
Hope this helps!
PS -
I’d stop misting the plant. They don’t typically need this especially if they have an actual root structure
They’re right. You shouldn’t be misting anymore. That’s for when they’re babies
