Unfortunately it's a simple run of the mill flourescent Wal-Mart "grow light". It comes with the light and small "ballast" (if you can even call it that) for immediate setup. It outputs at 75w and I only have one (I'm going to buy another soon). The plants are about a month in and they are less than one inch away from the light. I'm trying to keep them as short as possible due to it being a closet grow.

But let me get this straight....I'm under the impression the taller the plant, the more bud it can potentially produce. So I feel as though having a 6" 1 month-old 2" away from the light would cut down on eventual bud production because it won't have enough space to make big buds between the nodes. Is this legitimate or am I just being a big worry wart? This is only my third grow.....Thanks everyone!:jointsmile:
fresheadies Reviewed by fresheadies on . I'm back with a few light questions! Hey guys and gals, I haven't been here in a while but I have a few questions regarding lights..... 1. I have a fluorescent grow light in a chamber with plants 1 month old about 2-3 inches away from the light. Not including heat, can a plant ever be "too" close to a light? The distance between leaves is extremely nill so I'm curious if this will affect bud output. 2. When is a good time to make the switch from fluorescent to HPS? Thanks in advance all! Rating: 5
