NEED ADVICE ON VPD!! MY LEAFE TEMPS ARE BASSACKWARDS!

[Ohiogrower420]

I'm literally 10 to 12 in away from this Mars hydro ts-600m I'm getting leaf temps of 76° you know and if you look at my thermometer my hygrometer I'm sorrythe leaf temperature is cooler than the room temperature and I know that's bad ass backwards!! Right!!!

What is the problem? I think you are over thinking things. Plants look good and room temp is pretty much right where I run it. My leaf temp is a bit warmer that the room cause the lights are close. Is that what you mean? If it ain't broke....don't fix it my friend. I would do a bit of pruning if it were me though.

And I was under the assumption that the leaves should be lat like 83 with led on the surface of the leave but I have recently been informed on another forum I should be taking temps for the stomata at the bottom of leave and that my temps are good like you said!!!

I was just wondering because I'm literally 10-12in from lamp and canopy and temps are 76 not 83 like I was thinking. I was thinking led should be higher but I'm not going any closer with the light!!!

You are fine but I would spread and prune slightly especially if your humidity gets close to 60%. Mold and mildew could become an issue.

leds work with intensity, and don't have the temps of mh and hps lights, but if to close they will bleach your leaves. i'm with pute they look good.

Try not to over think things. That will drive you crazy. Your plants look fine. Set back and enjoy. Remember,, they are a Weed.
