Keep it simple, just lower the lights to 35cm. 480W is not too much for the room

Can you make an Auto flower by changing the light schedule?Ok, before everyone jumps on this with the obvious answer - I understand that you don’t NEED to change the lighting for an auto to flower, but my question is can you, if you wanted to, flip an auto to flower by changing the light schedule to 12/12?

Light flashed on Our power did some interesting things during the storm & the lights went on in the tent - I would say they literally flashed on & then off (along with the rest of the house) - during the *dark* period. How concerned if at all should I be about this? Anything I should / could do?

Is my LED too close or too far from my plant?So this is my first grow and it feels like she’s growing a bit slow. Currently at day 10. Distance was 62 cm. The LED is 100W. Now the distance is 57 cm. I’m wondering if I’m just impatient. Is this distance appropriate? How is the growth looking?

Is it too late for scrog at this point or will they continue to grow? I've now bumped the light up to 22K lux should I lower the light to increase the intensity even more? TIA
