Can rotating my 12 hour cycle back a few hours over the course of 3 nights harm my plant mid flower?
If i were to manually flip my lights on and off an hour early for 3 nights to adjust my 12/12 from 9am-9pm to 6am-6pm would it be detrimental to the plants? They are in the 5th week of flower. Rotating back 1 hour each night

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 ?

Time lapse under HID lighting
How do people do time lapse with hid lighting? Do I need to set timers to turn off hid, turn on fluorescent and then take the picture? Is there a filter I could buy that eliminates the horizontal scanning lines?

Change lights off time?
I'm having trouble with temperature control. My nights get too cold. My current lights off time is 12am-6am. Is it possible to change it? I really want my lights off to be from 9am-3pm. I think that would help me a lot. How do I change it? Let my lights run for 27 hours?

Grow light height in flowering
I have a lumatex ATS 200w led, I've it raised to max height but I've still only 10 inches of clearance from the canopy. It's flowering now and upward growth has stopped as buds are starting to fill out, will I be ok with this short distance?

2x2x4 yield expectations?
I want to use a 2x2x4 tent, growing (Gorilla Cookies) autos in Nature Living super soil mixed with Coco Loco. I want to yield just a few high quality ounces. Is this easily achievable with one 3 gallon pot under a SF-1000? Should I be concerned with any plant height issues?

Side lights ?
Would my plants benefit from these extra lights hanged to the side? Photos included of light and how they look. Above are two SF1000D lights. Curious if these will help the under growth or if it's just a waste? Thanks for any info anyone can share . Happy growing!

Light too close/too far ?
Is my light too far/ too close ? It’s at 20inches away from a 8 day old plant. I’m using the MarsHydro TS600 W. Thanks ! I don’t want to burn it / for it to stretch too much as I have a 140 cm tall tent. Thanks !! :)

Too much light ?
So started my second run and got everything dialed in but this time I’m running with spf-1000D and the normal spf-1000 is that too much light for the plants that would slow them down ? Together the lights should be around 200w
