By using the indoor lighting settings, you can adjust the times shown in graphs depending on actual lighting times.
By default, Sunrise and Sunset times are shown in the graphs to help you quickly see when a plant receives light or not. This is also enhanced by the grey and white areas during dark and light periods.
Introduction
However, at indoor facilities using artificial lighting, Sunrise and Sunset times do not reflect with the actual situation.
This can be adjusted with the "Indoor lighting" setting. With this setting you can set your lights ON and OFF times, and show them accordingly in our graphs. Giving you a more accurate picture of when your plants activity.
