Benefit? Yes. It'll mature faster. However, less light also means less energy to develop buds, so your yield would suffer a bit.

I purchased two Vipar Spectra 300 LED Lights. I am only using one right now because i was concerned two would be too much for the seedling phase. Should I keep just the one light or Put up Both ? When would be a good point in the plants life cycle to put up the extra lights ?Week 2

Should I flip?I’ve got my plants in 2gal fabric pots and I’m not planning on transplanting up. The plants are averaging about 8/9” and I’m starting to see small roots out the bottom. Should I flip to flowering, or can I get away with another week of veg?

Changing light cycle on seedlings?Can I run autoflower seedlings under 24/0 light cycle until they reach mature veg stage, and then move them into an 18/6 light cycle? I’m starting seedlings in a space tote, then transferring to a large tent to mature. Will the light cycle change have negative consequences?Setup. Lighting
