Help! Timer problem.
RichBud5
started grow question 5y ago
My timer on 18-6 broke and i'm not sure if the girls had 24 hours for the past couple days... by putting them back into 18-6 will that trick them into flower? Hope not. Thanks :)

Nope, theyll be fine. They wont start flowering until they have 12 hrs or less of light. Good luck!

OK to switch from 12/12 to 18/6 for auto in flower?
Is it OK to switch an auto from 12/12 to 18/6 when in flower (2 weeks)? I moved the plants from the attic which was way too hot and tried the 12/12 schedule to reduce the heat. Now that they are in an AC spare room wondering if it would be worth switching. Appreciate the support!

at the moment I'm using a 250W HPS and 2 40W CFL, this takes humidity down. When I will afford LEDs do you think that the humidity will stay as per night or drop down like maximum 10% or it will have same behavior as with hps/cfl combo? Thanks

Affordable but good growlight for small space
I'm looking for a cheap light to grow one plant, the current one (90w) have just doesn't have enough juice so I'd like to upgrade. I know mars has some good and affordable lights. Any other brands or not so famous brands in Europe that are cheap but good? Tips are welcome!

Veg/Bloom switch
My plants are 5 weeks from germination, I have flowers and buds forming but I am starting to worry they aren't growing as they should (I want them bigger). I have had my light veg and bloom switches on throughout. Would you recommend I change over to just bloom switch now?

SHOULD I DECREASE LIGHT TO 10 HRS TO SIGNAL TO THE BUDS ITS SNIPPIN' TIME? I'm in no rush, only that the light setup is not ideal for younguns! Don't wanna bully them til they're frail and weak... and not dank.

FC4800 = 2016 samsung diodes| 2,8 µmol/j |1347µmol PPE -- FC-E4800= 2646 bridgelux diodes | 2,7 µmol/j |1328µmol PPE Both are 480watt lights... Is there a difference between µmol 2,7 and 2,8 when it comes to yield? Is the FC4800 worth the extra money? Doesn't cost much more
