Hey fam, it’s my first attempt. I’ve got great genetics and all beans popped within 24-48 hours. I’m using a 4x5x6 Grow tent (I believe lol I’m bad with dimensions) and using 2 600w LED’s. How far up should my lights be above my week-old seedlings? They are starting their second sets of true leaves now. I’ll add a picture as well. Any help fam! Thanks! They are hung at 18” right now.

If it’s your first time just start recommended and go from their. Keep an eye out for stretching / burning. 18” sounds good. 4 by 5 is 120cm x 150cm.
Whats the draw wattage on them mate? If you dont know post a link and we'll check. I use 600 blurples that draw 240w and theyre 30 inches for seedlings. Then about 22 inches once theyre rooted up and like 4 nodes tall.
Oh and unless theres another tray under the left light i cant see id turn the other one off. Seedlings dont need or want much light till theyre rooted up.
I have 2 600w LED’s running 18/6 starting tomorrow.. they’ve been on 24 since seedling... hope I’m doing this ok this is literally my first try goin in blind! Nope just the one tray, 8 baby girls.. they’ve all almost got 2 full sets of true leaves, waiting on the third then was gonna let go til leaves hit edges and transplant. Having my buddy come by tomorrow to help me determine when to start nutes, fix lighting, all of that. Any advice would be great- thanks again guys. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Nah theyll be 240s at best mate. If it doesnt tell you the truè wattage on the lable on the back of the light then itll be in the specs on the site you bought them from. 600w leds dont exist sadly, its just a marketing ploy. Post a link though bud cos honestly the lights could be anything from 40w to 240w and it makes a massive difference.

I started growing with this light and came to realize they aren’t what they are advertised at. Yes you can grow cannabis but what kind of quality and yields are you looking for? Look into hlg quantum boards. Very affordable and very strong. Also are you trying to grow all 8 in that one tent? Not sure if you will have enough room
So i only am using the 600w KINGLED... I’m returning the phlizon because it’s horrible. It doesn’t even fully turn off with the timer. I can’t get my RH to go down and it’s worrying me! Any help of advice on lighting guys- thanks again. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
I returned the phlizon. It’s garbage. I’m going to put another in there somehow. Just need idea Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
It’s anywhere from 45-75 through day to night cycle. I have an intake filter inside and exhaust fan on the outside blowing the air from inside the tent out Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
aslong as it’s blown out into a new room where it can’t get back in. Will help lots not having the same air recirculating. If can’t get down make sure your ovulating fans are on 24/7 and keep the air movement up.
