Your ladies are beautiful. You have been doing good so far! I like to hang my Mars Hydro lights between 20-24 for veg, and 18-24 for flowering depending on canopy and if the plants can handle the intensity. I never dim my lights I only raise them and Lower them. I've seen people hand them high to purposely get some stretch out of the plants. But really it's all strain dependent in my opinion. I always try to get as close as I can without burning them with heat or light.

Changing Lighting ScheduleThe days on the plants are since planting, so i was going to keep the vegetative light schedule until 5 weeks since planting, then start moving towards a 12/12.
Is it even optimal for an autoflower to have a traditional 12/12 lighting schedule during flowering?

Slight leaf tip "burn"What do you think is causing this burn on my leaves? It seems to be quite common. and maybe nothing to worry about if it's this minute. but I would prefer to not burn my plants at all if possible. Could it be a sign of underwatering?

Should I switch to 12/12 lighting? - Autoflowers not showing pistils after 5 weeksGrowing five plants (germinated Sept 8) including 3 Anvil and 2 BlackStrap autoflower strains from Mandalorian Genetics. The BlackStraps have been showing pistils since about end of week 3. No Anvil plants are showing pistils. Should I switch the lighting schedule to 12/12?

18/6 leads to high temps in small tent; change light schedule or stick it out?Girls are at 18/6 and 3-4 hours before lights out the tent gets up to 90 degrees and humidity can’t compete.
Should I wait it out or try 16/8 moving towards 12/12 close to flowering (autoflower). Will lowering light exposure affect yield more than high temps would at 18/6Setup. Lighting

How to switch to floweringIt's been about 5 weeks from germination. I think we're ready to switch to flowering. I'm just not certain on how to go about it. Do I gradually reduce 18/6 of the veg light down to 12/12 (over a week?) then pop in the flower bulb? Or do I just make a hard switch?Week 4
