Hey bid she looks like she is already in flower, also being a auto flower they automatically flower lol so no need to change light timing, changing it to 12 12 will just lower your yield

Hello, It's an auto! Let it work on its own, no need to change the lights or the light duration, just relax, it's very beautiful. Don't change anything and good luck. I'm waiting to receive them to germinate!

Hello 👋 I’m also growing fastbuds GSC- the best part about auto flowers is that they have a pre determined life cycle. Meaning no change in lighting is required 😃 She looks great by the way! Happy Growing 🌱

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Because she's an auto flowering strain u can keep her under 18hrs light n she will continue to flower all the way thru to harvest.. By the looks of her she has already started the process.. Looking healthy so far tho.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀

Turning lights off before harvesting I've seen some growers who turn the lights off a couple of days before harvest, and I don't know why. Are there any benefits to doing this? or concerns?

General question about raising lights.Gotta question for what most of you are doing to raise your lights? Currently I've just set it static and move as needed. But I'm curious if anyone has a easier method or know of anything made to aid in the raising of the LED light fixtures ?

Lights airstone c02 What light to plant distance would you set it at? The only test I've done is at 25 inches its stable at 80°f and 75% humidity. When I lower it to 18 inches, the tent read 85°f and 73 humidity. Other question I have is what's your favorite air stone(disk)? Lastly, add c02 yes/no

LED distance to plant advice Interested in how close I can get my 630w LED with a rating of 2.7μmol/W and 1700 PPF to my canopy. I had it hung 48cm (19 inches) on 380w and just upped it to 500w day 8 in flower. Does this sound too close at 500w or is this ok? Temp is 25C (77F) humidity 55%.

Changing lights for auto flower At the beginning the light schedule was 18/6 after 2 weeks I changed it to 24hrs because the light was too weak (10w) I now got different stronger lights (600w)(finally arrived) With the stronger lights can I change it back to 18/6 ? It's autoflower.🤔🤔

Grow Light for 3x3 tent Looking for a good grow light for a 3x3 flower tent. -Price is not an issue -Low heat since I am venting into my living area. -Even light distribution. I plan on doing a SCROG so having the same light intensity on the edges as the center would be best.
