Do not switch back your lights to anything more than 12 hours or your photo period plants will respect that photo period and go back to vegging stage. Keep on the great care! Happy smokes!

Bud too close to the light
Hi. The main bud on one is 10cm from the light. I cant raise the light any higher and have a bit more vertical growth to go. Shall I remove the bud at a lower artery, or leave it and bend it around the light somehow?? Don't want to loose the main bud but will if I have to?!?

As this strain is an auto, going on 12hr of light during flowering won't do her any harm right ?

Bloom light on heat goes too high?
When turning on the bloom setting the temps seem to be getting up to 84 on the very top of my tent and around 80-82 by the bud sites. Is this too high? Is there any problem turning the bloom high power switch off to let it cool down for a half hour once or 2 a day if too hot?

Grow light question
I notice a decent drop off in PAR as my meter moves away from center. I have a 2x2 tent and am thinking of buying a light for a 3x3 tent that has gaps allowing for ventilation. Any thoughts?
