sorry, can't help you on that. i'm a hydro guy

i would try to grow one plant directly under the 2x3 led to start with.

you can always add more light at a later date now that you will have a 4x4 tent.

generally, more blue for veg, more red for flower.

Need to watch out with those settings they may offer less wattage one way or the other. I know those amazon lights with the veg/bloom setting works best for wattage by having them both on

true but his light is pretty solid. it's one of the few "good" blurples. but good point, i don't know if its' a switch or dials to control intensity of each color.

Switch only

My light has red,blue or purple settings. I tried purple on my vegs and they flowered at at 3-4" high.
This 3x2 zelion light is still a mystery to me.
Height above the plants and what color to use.
I still haven't figured out what to do.
I know now that you don't start with purple.
This light has been around for a few years, so why is it so hard to get step by step instruction?
Somebody must use them.

 

[Clumpyoyster]

Did the light come with any information as to what the settings are rated for wattage or anything? Spectrum of the different settings or something?

 

[Clumpyoyster]

Maybe ask this guy...

keep them all the same out-put then in veg raise the red spectrum for growing amd once in flower increase the blue - If you want to really increase your terpens production - On the last 3-4 days before harvest just use the BLUE spectrum - this will increase your trichimes and essential oils

It's been a long time since I used that fixture...... The tight secondary lenses & blurple output makes it difficult to have a flawless run imo.

Best advice is to read your plants and have a separate white light source to check for issues...

My detailed thread is on here somewhere, just have to look for it.

Not very much. Here is a link to the manual that came in the box.
I can't find much more.

Sounds right. I just haven't been there yet.
