Switched to flower on the 21st of april. Gave them a full 24 hour dark period and then adjusted my timers to 12/12. I added a red booster strip that acts as a sunrise and sunset turning on 15 mins before lights and stays on 15 mins longer. helps the plants go to sleep and wake up.
When you cut leave i heard that you have to keep a bit, anyway it will die and fall off, but you will have extra mini pump in her place ....
I do it myself always.
With branches i thought you have to go flat with body. Plus its very dangerous to expode to light or any pests its like heart surgery without doctor sewing you up after ...
People are covering wounds with different treatments. Hope it all good and your lights will come soon.
Time to show some flowers !
@Cooter1948, happy for you . In flower light is power ;)))
I am doing my second round of defoliation. Take a look in couple hours i will upload. I made mistake, my lovely plants streched too much, distance was wrong. Lux meter showed enough power, but distance played the trick and they streched a lot, dont make that mistake !
If you have curly-taco leaves - your lights too close. Now mine are at 10 inch distance, but i use leds, so its not too hot for them.
Good luck !
