Your plant will tell you. first sign, the to leaves lighten up in color as to not absorb so much light. sometimes they will adapt to this. next sign is they start to droop(only the tops) like they are underwatered or over watered. this is the dead giveaway. move the light away until they are happy, you have to experiment tail you get a feel for the specific light and strain. Not all lights and strains are created equal.
unless you want to use it for breeding...
Maybe I should try one of those fems instead of the 20 year old ones?
I'm combining cfls with it, just have a small area to cover.
Yeah, looks like you're cooking that little guy. Raise the light until she starts to get green again. After a while, she should harden, and not be so sensitive.
Sunglasses brother. For LEDs get either green or copper lenses. You dont have to buy $100 grow specific glasses, $20 polarized glasses work fine. Got to your local big retail store that isnt owned by the Waltons, and look in the fishing department. Blue lenses will work alright too. Before I got a pair everything turned green then pink when i was under the lights. I also had headaches and ended up medicating way more because of it. All that disappeared after i got the sunglasses. Well except the medicating part.

I probably had it on too long too. I think I keep cfls at 20 hours. At 7 - 13 hours run the galaxy. Good idea? Thanks.
I thought it was blue for veg, red for flower??
I think that's a fact but a lot of fixtures combine the two. Has a lot to do the the kelvin and the nm number for FLOWERING 600nm is good and 3000k is good.
