Autoflower light cycles - adjusting mid grow
GreenHillZonestarted grow question 4y ago
Autoflowers can grow in pretty much any light cycle. What are your experiences with changing light cycles mid grow? I am currently around Day 24, running 20/4 but the humidity in my grow cabinet at lights off is very high. How would adjusting to 24/0 affect my plants now? Thanks!

It is extremely hard on your lights and the gain vs cost of electricity is not worth it. Plants also need a resting time. I use to do 20/4 for a long time. I just went to 18/6 not long ago.

Hey growmies✌️💚, so I finally have a PAR meter. With all my 3 LEDs on at the lowest setting I reach like 77 umol max. What would you recommend for seedlings that small like in the picture? I saw seedling/clone 100 - 300. So just wondering how much for my little flowers? 😁✌️

Irregular light schedule.I am thinking about giving her 24h lights a few days a week and then go back to 18h. Just to give her a boost. Will this irregular light schedule harm her?
My first thought is that it doesn’t matter much since she is an auto, however I know that plants love balanced environments.Week 3

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?

When did the flowering start?The LED panel, after switching (Ts600 Mars Hydro), stayed slightly on even during the dark hours. I managed to fix the issue, but I'm not sure how to count the flowering period. The plant had shown some differentiation, a few pistils, and a bit of stretching. What do you think?
