Hieght of 1000w MH during seedling stage?

[J DOG 6000]

They're poping there heads out and doing great...I'd just like to say HA!....JK.
Hopfully they will continue and no I spent all my money on 2 1000w Lights 1 MH
1 HPS
but it fine they will grow faster under this light once they're roots get going...even as a seedling.Also I kind of need a big light because there are quite a few seedlings...I'd need several CFL's and I don't think I need them...If I can germ in the direct sunlight ,I can do this...I control the elements indoors so it's easyier I think.But I've grown outdoors alot.

NICE jdogg!
Are you going to run both lights at the same time?
You should!

HA

Wasn't planning on it,I'm just going to switch to HPS when they go into flower.
So...all my seeds are above soil now and no stretching or burning.The light is 4 feet above soil ,one fan is sucking airout of the ballst (to cool it)and blowing directly on the light.Then the osolating fan goes back and forth across the top of the soil.they all look like these...same hieght about,some are shorter.

I've used 1000 watters for seedlings lots of times but I had a linear light mover. You know one of those track motors. It's so easy to screw up both with seedlings outdoors and under hot lights.

Good luck,

Ya those light movers take away this whole problem.

Swating a fly with a bull dozzer, yes it does work.
Light 1 ft to 20 feet
How reflective the walls are
How much air flow
How much RH %
How much area
How soil is made up of
Florsent work when close as they put out less heat. Plants from seed till ready to bloom work great under florsents. :thumbsup:
18/6 works great on earth for starting seeds and clones, till blooming cycles.

I can tell the haters one thing...in one week I germinated and popped those seedling under that 1000w MH...I had a 95% germ rate and 100% seedlings popping out of the soil thriving under that light, loving it rate.

What is 1 to 20 feet...

anyway I'm covering a 5x5 area with some plants I'm nursing back to health on the sideline.Great circulation,fresh air,good temp...what are you asking if anything?

In my opinion floro's are good for 1 thing clones and seedlings.The day I flower under a floro light I will have become a desperate man.

Sounding good Jdog... sounding good

You're growing them all in soil? Hydro? SoG or LST? Or JGB?

Easy,

Yes,soil.I'm keeping it simple because it's a car drive away from my house,so I needed something forgiving ,just incase.
Soil and I'm using Pro blend Organic grow nutes...I'll be using Pro Blend Bloom for soil and Budswel for flowering ...all organic this time.

Dude props for you it's working. I'll be watching to see if they grow faster start to finish then using fluorescents for seedlings and clones. I never had much luck my self but props for you dude.

How is the stretch may I ask?
