Recently got a 2×4 ion board s24 from ac infinity, first time growing photo periods under this light I have they're app and the light is at level one and i have my light at 18 inches, I'm going into week 3 they're growing but at a very slow rate. Wondering if I should raise my light and set the light intensity to level 2 on they're a/c infinity app? Also I got the seeds from a friend of mine and he got the seeds Givin to him from somebody else.. the seeds are from evermore genetics the strain is Wilson Odder Popz. My temperature is dialed in averaging around 75 degrees but my humidity is in the 30% I'm growing in foxfarm ocean forest I also started with a dome for the first week but I had both the two vents opened at the top and after the 3-4th day i off set the dome so that it wasn't fully sealed for more air flow.. I noticed some white mold in the soil. Is this a sign of damping off or could this be some healthy fungi?? Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!

Im using a ViparSpectra light, similar stats to yours. My seedlings take forever but they explode in veg. I try to keep them about 36" for seedlings and 24 for veg.

Stay the course. Youre alright.

Appreciate it, now they're about a foot tall, I just needed to dialing my new light I'm at 60% light intensity and my light height is 18 inches or so!

So I just messed with this a bit too. My light is probably 3 ft or so above my plants. I downloaded Photone app and am using the PAR as a general number.

I got my guys between 280-500 and theyve been exploding. I thought one of my plants was going through lockout or bad roots, the light was just fk'n roasting it lol

Oh damn yea I try and keep my light around 18 inches because I'm trying to control the hight and keep them nice low and bushy in veg since I only have two I'm trying to cover my tent with a nice even canopy! Do you know how accurate that par app is, I'm curious how good they really are I have a samsung s20 I might check it out!

Yeah I would if I had a proper way to exhaust the air outside so I need to keep my humidity kinda low to prevent mold from growing in the walls of my house.. I'm growing in my gameroom/mancave and I'm not trying to let my neighbors know I'm growing buy exhausting my air to the outside, or else I would crank up the humidity!

You will be fine with 60-70% humidity in a house as you open the doors it’ll go out I keep my lung room 56% with my humidifier in my tent set to 70% my lung room is small maybe 9x9
