    Great Cliffs Notes so to speak! Being a "soil biome' kind of guy, I smiled every time the camera panned by the H2O2. Made the mistake of non-sterile mix for my starts last year and the endless battle with fungus gnats in the house. Great advice to embrace the elemental forms of nutrients for starting seedlings. Let mother nature's fungal / bacterial network do their thing outdoors -- plenty of time for the majority of the growing season to contribute to wonderful, healthy crops without fertilizing throughout the season!

    • @THERUSTEDGARDEN

      Fungus gnats are the worst. I really think indoor is best left to basic elements. Outdoors let the roots grow into great organic soil for sure.

    Thanks Gary. QUESTION: Are my seedlings too close to the light if the leaves turn upward like a "V"? I notice in your video at time 35:27 top left tray has a few seedlings in it that have the leaves turned upward. Mine have started doing that the past few days after having the lights on for about 14 hours. I leave the lights on 16 hours and the next morning when I check on them they are not pointed up anymore. They have been growing for 2 weeks and are about 2 inches rom the lights.

    I'm trying to get an answer as to how far apart my grow lights should be from each other. I'm NOT talking about the distance ftom the lights to the seedling.
    Im using a 18"x48" with 5 shelves in it. I had planned on using three Barrina 4' LED bulbs that are rated at 5000 kelvin. I'm using 10x20 plastic plant trays and was planning on using three bulbs. The two outside bulbs will be placed 4" ftom the edge of that plant tray and the third LED bulb will be centered at 10". All lights will be placed perpendicular to the 10x20 light trays.
    I could really use your help. Every time i ask the question I'm told how far to place the LED bulbs from the plants and that's NOT what I'm looking for.

    @StevenPetermann Před 6 měsíci

    I recently got some LED shop lights for growing. However, since the output may vary somewhat among brands I'm trying to get a better handle on what the plants are actually seeing. I have a light meter I use for photography that can measure Lux which measures light intensity. I'm wondering if you have ever gotten some intensity measurements. Depending on the height I put the lights I can get readings from 3000 LUX all the way to 20,000+ Lux. I've been doing some experiments with different intensities but I can't be sure it's the light or some other factor (soil, moisture, plant type, etc.) that is affecting the plants. Any idea what intensities would be best for various plant stages?

    • @THERUSTEDGARDEN
