400w "mh"~veg "hps"~flower lighting height

[Dutch Pimp]

ok thanks i have an open reflector and my temps never go under 65 and not over 85ish i think is what ive seen it at i ha vent had a prob with the plants burning its just other cola's are not lit up but im thinking if they grew that way back there they shouldn't hurt any production on the top cola's im kinda done moving and cutting because i should be flowering soon but when i flower keep the light as close as possible and DONT trim for the cola's to get light after i have click to 12/12 right

vegging with MH is best...but, too far away is better than too close.
UV rays are strong with MH light. If you want to know how strong?...stick your hand under it for 5 minutes...
... & wait for the pain in two days....just kidding...don't do that!

If you burn the tops...it takes a long time to recover & not all reflectors are created equal.

I had been told 15"~24" ive had it about 12" its doing great but if i was to raise it up to prob to 20" im not 100% just raised it up all the cola's get more direct/reflected light but is the lumen still good enough to produce dense bud's i have 3 main plants 2 bigger ones 1 that was from a seed. "ive been fine haven't had a prob yet from a seed for the Rating: 5
