Pro Tips for Success

Light Distance Matters

Keep LED lights 18–24 inches above seedlings and 12–18 inches during vegetative growth. Too close causes light burn; too far causes stretching.

Water Wisely

Overwatering kills more plants than underwatering. Let the top 2 inches of soil dry before watering again. Use pH-balanced water between 6.0–7.0.

Climate Control

Maintain temperatures between 20–28°C during the day and 18–22°C at night. Keep humidity at 60–70% for seedlings, 40–50% during flowering.

Organic Feeding

Use compost teas, worm castings, and organic amendments. Feed lightly every 2–3 weeks. Organic soil already contains nutrients, so less is more. Browse growing media & amendments at HydroPros.
