Great, bro! 👌 In that case, you won't lose any yield at all. 👌 Here's another useful tip for you, dude! 👆 Download the free app "luxmeter" from the app store on your smartphone, give your phone screen a good wipe to remove grease and dirt. The light sensor is located on the screen side, and it often competes with individual lux meters. Check the light intensity above your plant. During flowering, your girl loves light levels between 20000-100000 lux. Adjust the lamp height so it doesn't heat the plant to shock levels, but stays above 20000 lux. Install the app, and you'll remember me more than once, bro! It'll be like a compass for your lighting! 👆 And don't forget to choose the best answer author for your question, bro! It's very important for the community and our competitions! 👆 Thanks! 👍 Good luck, bro! ✊😇

Hey, bro! 👋 For constant flowering, 6400K won't be enough; it can only be used in emergency cases during flowering, like when the temperature from HPS lamps is too high! 6400K is the perfect color for the plant's vegetative stage; in this light, the girl grows her roots excellently and feeds, develops, and grows her branches and internodes! As a temporary substitute, 6400K will do for flowering! But try to get 3000K for flowering as soon as you have the money available! 👆 👌 Good luck, friend! Everything will be fine! Keep going! ✊😇
