how close can i put my 400w hps to my seedlings

HI i have a temp gun never new to use it on leaves also thats nice to no i also use a humidity and temp device my humidity is 40 i cant get it lower if i slow fan down it does nothing ive germinated only 8 seeds but all turned out well just slow to start every plant has been over 6ft ive not failed with a seed yet
Yeah proper vpd is the difference between the temperature of the air and the temperature of the leaf along with humidity. Temps control how fast your plant can suck up water and air humidity controls wether the plant can respirate that moisture back into the air.

Like I said though this part is a lull period. Roots gotta search and weave themselves in and your seedling has to get acclimated to its new environment.

As far as humidity goes, if you're struggling to keep it up you may need to buy a small tent humidifier, vivosun and ac infinity make relatively inexpensive 1 gallon models for small grow tents. Up to a 4ftx4ft model I believe. Will shut off after you reach a certain humidity and kick back on when it goes under.
 
Hi i tryed that my phones trash it said it did not have a ambient light sensor i will ask neighbour later im in the uk
I figured when you were using celcius and metric lmao. Yeah that would be the best way to check to make sure you're getting adequate levels of light. As far as temp/humidity management thats going to have a learning curve especially with HID lighting.

you want higher humidity than that if possible bro and going by your seedling id say you need to lower your light a bit also are you growing in a tent and what extraction are you using
 
my neighbour has a humidify for me also but hes dog chewed the lead i can order a new one thanks for the knowledge
Never be afraid to ask questions. Also theres a lot of really experienced growers and breeders in the live stoner chat. If you ever need a brainstorming session amd quick answers thats the place to go. Lots of people from europe and the uk in there too. So some similar environmental conditions.

Im still new too, technically if you have been doing it on and off for 15 years you got more under your belt than me. @St. Tom, who replied a lil bit a go is a god when it comes to solo cup grows. He knows a lot, he would definitely be a good place to start with questions.
