Very strange app for the lights ... they start at 30 and go upto 255 so 255 is 100%... why i dont know:(:confused:

The only lighting suggestion I would make is you have your day light schedule spread across all the hours for total time when all you need to do is reduce the day light time to one slot. If that makes sense? Then you can use the rest of the available slots for a more fluid ramp up and ramp down. At least that's how I have mine programmed.

My sps spreads and branches. If it's spreading more than branching, I would say it's more flow than lighting.
