Hey Growmies, This is my first grow with my new AC Infinity 1000W EVO10. I’ll be ready to flip in about a week. I’d like to know how people are using the sunrise/sunset mode to achieve the best results. Thanks

Nice light! Limiting light by ramping up or down and reducing PPFD incrementally during the light period doesn’t make sense to me. Plants use light to produce the energy (sugars via photosynthesis) the plant needs to produce and maintain trichomes. AC Infinity is a great company, but it sounds like…

Thanks @MidwestGuy . That was initial my thought also but I can’t shake the feeling I might be missing out on something.

You are likely missing less potent weed if the plant is not given all the PPFD that you can give it.

Curious… what ppfd do you shoot for during veg and flower? I target 600 during veg, 1000 for flower then turn back down to 700 the last two weeks of flower to prevent foxtailing

I kick it up to 1,100 once that plant is mature enough to take it.

I don’t think you are. I was playing this out in my head. Naturally they begin taking light in when photons hit a certain point of intesity and stop inversely. The lighting we use, I dont believe, is as intense as sunlight. I think a lot of times marketers take advantage of our humanity based thinki…

Thanks for that thoughtful reply @SausageMahoney . I gotcha. Like fishing lures that are made to hook more fishermen than fish.

I’ve never used the sunrise/sunset feature. It just seems like an extra to me in an already great automation system.
