Can I just turn down my light percentage to foliar spray

Hey man I have a 1000W and a 9 or 10 foot ceiling so I just raise or lower depending on what I need but a dimmable ballast is very good it'll extend the life of your bulb by using it on lower wattages.


You'll still experience burn even though you can't see it as quickly as per if the light was 2 feet away full brightness but it is able to damage and stress her over time.


Always so lights off foliar spray or where the lights not bright enough to burn 40% of 1000watts is still 400watts so she will burn on water spots. They act like tiny magnifying glasses for your light

It'll only bloom if it receives more than 12hrs of darkness in a day. Unless it's an auto or the strain is known to be more photo period sensitive. It shouldn't flower for 15-30 minutes of lights off


40% at 4 feet still will burn a little especially if it's direct, indirect not so much but it'll still affect her overtime. the time to see damage is just slightly extended since it's further away from the bulb.


I Foliar feed 1-4x a day where
I will turn the lights off it's easier when they're sprouts since I can just take the whole tray out and spray but now they're in 1-5 gallons jugs so
Lights off.
Otherwise I'll see damage.
Here's how mine currently look with 16 main colas forming
