Doing a 16 hour light schedule, night cycle is as important as day.
Photosynthesis has been ramped up all day storing all the manufactured starches and sugars into the stem, storing as much as it can.
During night when the photosynthesis production stops, underneath the soil comes to life, energy is now devoted to root growth and expansion, all the stored starches and sugars are distributed to new growth across the plant.
This is why I'm leaning more towards 16/8 moving forward. I'm trying not push her too hard.

Upsizing to 7 gallon airpots soon. Allowing to dry out entirely for transplant.
With the sheer excess of blues/uv the plant can be seen to start producing more anthocyanin(purple pigment) within the leaves so it can scavenge/capture more photons of light from those spectrums. Life depends on it, some are more genetically prepared than others.
@Ultraviolet, thank you! It’s scares me so I put it on a Wi-Fi enabled switch with a timer countdown. I like the colors they yield toward the end of flower.
