12 hours of 600 watt HPS then 6 hours of 120 watts from cfls? Could it turn hermie on me if I did this?

  1. Hey guys, flower is coming up and there's a couple smaller guys that I wanna keep in veg so I am thinking of letting them have 12 hours of 600 watt HPS then for the remaining 6 hours I would have them under two 60 watt cfl lights. I would just have to take them out of the tent everyday. Lots of work but in the end it's all worth it. Any chance it would hermie on me if I did this? I know it would slow them down a bit when I have too put it under the two 60 watt cfls. Could always add more light too. Thanks.
     
  2. As long as the flowering plants are getting their 12 and the vegging plants get their 18 you should be fine
     
  3. I've done it a few times moving from 1k hps to t5ho lighting and haven't had any hermie issues.
     
  4. Thanks for sharing. I'll hope for the best.
