If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light

I have several question about my setup for the first week:
- is the distance of the light to the plant ok? - is the intensity of 25% correct? - should I remove the seed coat or should I just let Mother Nature do it, eventually it will be blown up..

23 hours light per day?
I’m running 4 autos in a 4x4 tent on 20 hours of light per day. I’m thinking about the possibility of changing the light hours to 23 hours a day and 1 dark hour. I’m currently on week 8/9, I’m expecting it to finish roughly 12/14 weeks from birth. Any thoughts on this growers?

Max 180w LED output for 2x4x6 tent with 3 plants. Good enough?
I have a 3-chip 1000W LED with a max output of 180w (Veg 125w, Bloom 55w): I'm growing autos in a 2x4x6 tent. I'd like to grow 3 plants at a time. Do I need another grow light? Will the one I have suffice?

600w hps
Wouldnt let me PM. I have a 5ft long 3ft wide 6ft tall white walled grow room and am thinking about a 600w HPS light now. Will this fill the entire room? If so how many plants should I plant? Will this one suffice? Would a 400w hps be more suitable for this space?

Increase light hours autoflower
My autoflowers are 6 weeks old and showing flowering signs. Can I increase the number of light hours from 17hrs to 20/22/24hrs? Does it cause light stress and can trigger vegetation or make it hermaphrodite?

Stretchy seedlings...worried!
Hi, I have 5 seedlings on day 7. 2 of them are going fine but the three from ditch passion were very stretchy though. Likely due to having the light to far away. Take a look, any advise would be great. Cheers all!
