Nice to join the network have fully committed myself to growing autos after a few failed attempts as a hobby I want to take it serious now. So my 1st proper grow is 3x blackberry gum and 1 BCN Critical XXL currently in summerhouse with reflective insulation on week 1 under a 75watt 3 way LED switching to 200watt square led in a weeks time only using soil with few breather stones and currently using naked water ph 6.8 nutes are on way.

Welcome @moran1234
You should find all the help you need here.
Without details, my only question would be what other lights you got for flowering?

Sound bro always wanted to see what it was all about onwards and upwards and keep learning I suppose :smoking:

I've got a 300w square led coming from amazon not sure on the make not the most expensive but it seemed closest to what I've seen pictures off and read about bro should be cool @Jimmythenugg

Have to be careful with some led grow lights off amazon especially if you are from the UK, some of the specifications aren't correct and are being missold... Have you got the specs of the light?

Also that 75w 3 led light you have is it a e27 bulb? I've just bought an additional light 50w kingbo led with 2 lights, just curious to see ifyou have found replacement bulbs yet

I didn't think I'd need replacements for the 3 way light atm but these are the bulbs bro I'm not good on the tech side of things yet
