Some information, such as the optimum distance from the plant, is a guideline we receive from the supplier. Your growing space and cannabis plant may vary.
From Mars Hydro, we've received the following advice for the FC 3000-EVO. You can keep the height of the lamp from the peaks constant if you use the dimming function. Without adding CO2, hang the grow lamp at 30 cm. If you add CO2, you can even hang the lamp lower: 20 cm from your plants. Then use the dimmer with the following settings:
- Seedlings | Without CO2: 25% light | With CO2*: 50% light
- Growth phase | Without CO2: 75% light | With CO2*: 75% light
- Flowering phase | Without CO2: 100% light | With CO2*: 100% light
* See recommended products for an ingenious and safe way to increase CO2 in your growing space.
