Question about light
    #19050864 - 10/29/13 08:01 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hi all,

I was wondering, since all of my light fixtures are being used in a grow closet, and I'm very broke, could I just put my fruiting chamber in the grow closet? Or would 18 hours of light per day hurt my cubes?

Thanks in advance!

No, but if the lights heat your cakes above 27 celcius they will likely not fruit, and it will be hard to keep humidity up. A 12/12 cycle is ideal - but I've been incredibly lazy with lighting and seen no changes in performance. As long as there is a rough day/night cycle you should be fine.

Thanks for your help! I'm only using a 150w HPS and three CFL's in my basement closet, so I'm thinking heat shouldn't be an issue. Plus, I'll set the fruiting chamber on the floor, farthest away from the lights. And, for humidity, I guess I can just mist them more frequently.
