Was wondering being that they are automatic do you still have to give the more light and better light?

Welcome TryC-

If they are stretching the culprit is most likely the distance between the top of your plant(s) and the light. What light are you using? Dirt or water.

It appears you have too many seeds in the vault. I will stock them for you. :bigjoint:

Welcome! Yes the distance of your light will cause streching. The more light the better... but i think like anything else they need a little sleep to. I go 18/6 and get great results! Some people go 24/0 but like i said i think they need rest to.

What about if your light is further away, yet more intense?

Do they level each other out?

It depends on what you are using and what you have. Cool tubes, ventilation, fans, ect......

I run a 600 hps with a couple fans blowing on it. It hangs about 18" above the top of the plants.

Here is a good way to tell how close the light should be. Place your hand on top of your plant. If the back of your hand is too hot the light is too close.

Hello, first and foremost my name is Joe. Hey not to chime in on someone else's thread but I'm new on here and saw you have a Dark Davil as your avatar, do you have experience with these? I've done a few photos and just got an order of some of these from Herbie's which I might add had great experience with. I plan on soil probably FFOF with 10% cut of FFHF and 20% perlite or maybe a FF Light Warrior I just have FF available so figured go with it. So ANY POINTERS? LOL. THANKS IN ADVANCE, JOE.

Sorry Joe. I've no experience with Dark Devil Auto. I just liked the way it looked. One gets tired of the same old green with the odd splash of blue, purple... Red makes a nice difference.

It's an all round winner of you ask me. Good height, yield, smell, taste. And probably stone. It's also quick.
