Light in flowering stage
Gnagnastarted grow question 5y ago
Hi guys! Unfortunately my balcony is not well exposed and the sun is turning fast. Now I have 4 or 5 hours of direct light in the morning. The weather also was not the best in the last few days. I only have a cfl lamp 45W. Should I use it or it doesn't matter? Thanks!

Hey, the more light the better so if you can afford it and the neighbours don't mind, use the additional CFL light. Even though 4-5 hours direct sunlight in the morning isn't perfect it would definitely still work good enough. But yeah, if you can use the CFL for sure :)

Hey buddy, At this time of flowering stage, The more light they get, the better the result.I don’t think 45W CFL will be enough for your plant.I would do at least 160W CFL and also need a good light reflector.Good luck to you and Happy Growing... ✌️
