I got ppfd meter app and don't know how to use it correctly or calibrate it... Could someone please help

So when and how I would like some advice on this mine are going on third node.

hit the icon on bottom left.

Set the top, source to whatever is closest to your light, likely it is going to be 'Low CRI LED 3500K

Set the next one, Daily interval to how many hours the light is on per day.

That's it do I leave calibration off or what it says calibrate lux then goes to that calibration factor

Here is what you said and calibration off.the top one is the sonlipo and the bottom is growstar both hanging at 24 in. What range should I have it in2

Yes, I left calibration off too, because I couldn't figure out what it wanted.

The absolute numbers aren't as critical as their comparison to each other.

If you turn them both to 22, you will have more even light.

You might find this link interesting.

Buried in the link on my previous post it suggests:

Seendlings: 2-300 PPFD MAX

Veg: 5-600 MAX

Flower: 800-1,000 MAX

Now, these values are assume you are at the ideal spot on your VPD chart.

I believe that VPD is more important than turning up the light.

Add light, within the limits above, but if you can't stay in your VPD, stop increasing it. You don't want to burn your leaves(tips curl up and brown)

Once you have more leaves, you'll start to feel more confidant.

I have no experience with the app, but I took a look at the Par map of ur sonlipo light and it says 1064 ppfd @ 18”. That should give u an idea if ur in the “ballpark”.
