And not to be an asshole but that LED panel isn't doing dick for your plants, especially where it is. Save the wattage and pull the plug on that sucker. Is it even on? I can't tell. Again I'm not trying to be an asshole it's just not good for growing weed. Maybe for seedlings at first but now it's worthless. Save the watts.
