    HELP! Distance led lights should be from plants

    I have got a viparspectra 300w LED and wanting to put 3 Auto's under it in soil using 20L pots. How far should my light be from the top of the Seedlings? during veg? and during flowering plants? Cheers guys!

    Hey I just recently started using a viparspectra LED the instructions in the manual actually worked pretty well. I would use a CFL for seedlings though to get em going well.
    48”x48”x80” flower/main tent
    600w mh/hps
    32”x32”x63” veg tent
    viparspectra PAR 450 led
    FFOF soil, Fox farms nutes, raw silica
    5 gallon Smart Pots
    Current grow Aurora Indica, Girl Scout Cookies, Wonder Woman (all Nirvana)

      Thank's for the advice I'll be sure to look at the manual. I'll see if I can get a CFL for propagation/seedlings. Will probably get another 300w Viparspectra LED too as not sure 1 will be enough for 3 Auto Mazar's? What's your thoughts?

        Morning Afroman1, It all depends on if you can keep them trained close enough, another 300watt LED, wouldn't hurt anything except make your tent a few degrees warmer, as for height, usually start seedlings at 24-28 inches, then a couple of weeks later you can lower it to 14-18inches.
        GoodLuck Afroman, if you need any help feel free to ask, lots of good ,friendly help on GWE,
        and Welcome to GWE.
        PS- another light will help to make your buds more dense,hard.
