meanwell driver HLG-480H-C2800AB/B,480W,
4pcs high effiency lm301B 288 board,
3500k /660nm Reds
30” away from canopy
Growing in coco
The growth is nothing compared to my amazon light I used my last grow took 6 weeks veg and I had no choice to flip the growth was insane but since I switched to this led not very impressed is it because my temps are cooler ? What do you guys have your temps in your grow tent for great growth ?

Lower it closer

Need to be 80f +, run at half the power you would in flower or its too much and plants will be shocked.

Im assuming your in a 4x4 space.

If you cant get your temps up then veg with your old led.
You wont be disappointed in the new light when it comes to flower.

 

[crownroyal]

See growth is healthy just slow as hell

Alright so crank this light up to about half at 30inch or crank it down to 240 and have it like 24inches away my temps are now at like 28c so 83f that should make a improvement?

Temps are now 83f do you think that will be good enough to see great growth ? Yup a 4x4 just with my other light I seen 1” to almost 2inchs a day in growth

Would I need to run those temps high in flower?

He didn't explain very well eh. And no mention of the deficiencies from those LEDs you have to overcome. Already looks like the plant wants to run out of the pot lol/

Looks to me like that plant was recently put in a large pot
so its trying to grow above and below ground and for the time being the roots are winning
I think it is more that than a bad light ...it looks like it is about to implode soon

 

[crownroyal]

Has nothing to do with LST on the leafs?

I'm gonna go ahead and say it's not the light. Something else is going wrong in your grow. Like why did you chop it down?

I topped it and I’m gonna low stress train it when the shoots get bigger this plant is almost 30 days old I just feel it’s lacking

I know you topped, but looks like you cut quite a bit. When did you top it?

I topped it when it was working on the 6th node down to the 4th and cut away 1 and 2 and kept 3 and 4

If the auxilliary shoots were tiny it might just take a while for them to grow. Have they grown?

I used a aglex 2000 led my last grow both amnesia haze and by 6 weeks from seed I had mainlined each plant to produce 8 colas over 20inch tall before switching to flower and with this led it’s already been a month lol it’s maken me mad

 

[crownroyal]

I got this qb so I can keep my temps down in flower and not burn away terpenes and make good dense flower without airy buds

 

[crownroyal]

Very little I guess I’ll wait until tomorrow to see if they have grown any and if not guess it’s the old aglex coming back
