Hey guys, stopping by to throw a quick question. In proper conditions (good temp and rh), is there such a thing as too much veg lighting? My lights are ranging from 5500k to 6500k. I'm wanting to do full panoramic lighting. Any harm to come of this?

Im letting her pot dry out now. Need her to show me she wants water before I feed again. Its been over a week now. And I do have CFL's going. I plan on cutting on my 150 watt hps later in veg. There's two smaller plants in there. The HPS is too strong for them

my lockout was caused by letting her get to dry ..... i watered her with a light feed and it basically stopped the progression ... damgaed leaves will never recover and in ur case better removed ....you dont want any bugs build their home in them dead leaves ;)

Yeah I definitely thought I was over watering. I have 3 gallon pots and made sure I would get some run off when watering. The soil hasnt gotten too dry though. So idk what caused my issues. I have fed with grow big veg feed and a bit of cal mag. And yeah I think youre right on saving the HPS til flower. This is my second grow and the cfl's are doing pretty well. I just hope the HPS will get some dense nugs

Hey brother, you building a solar chamber or what? Death by LUMS/PAR, Nuke em' with brightness. All lights come with there manufacturing recommendations for distance from plants (and lie about there quality and output).
If I don't sunburn, bleach, overheat my plant. Can I damage it with just plain light.... I've tried.....been accused of light overkill and wasting electricity. :hmmmm:
