Question: Whenever I take pictures of my marijuana plants while the HPS grow light is on, the whole picture looks yellow and washed out. Is there a way to take nicer pictures under the HPS light?
All I have are my iPhone and a regular digital camera. Is there some secret to taking good pictures under the HPS grow light?
Answer: Use "Tungsten" or "Flourescent Lighting" setting on your camera. This setting or mode is available on nearly all digital cameras if you look under the various settings, including click-and-shoot models, iPhones and most other phone cameras.
