AUTOFLOWERS...is it best to use minimal lighting during veg

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by Fredbear, Apr 1, 2014.

  1. My last auto flower grow didnt turn out to well..From seedling I used 4 day light floresent bulbs and one 400 w 
     
    the plant only produced sumthing like ten grams
     
    it looked stunted
     
    NEW GROW one just popped thru the soil in its big ole pot should I just keep the day lights on her till she starts to flower
     
    I was planning on moving her outside next month  
     
    thoughts...suggestions?
     

     
  2. Nope you want the most light you can get for auto flowers and make sure not to stunt them there veg is very important, 18/6 will work fine but most people use 20/4 and 24/7
     
  3. so right now it just came thru hit it with all it got?
     
  4. You can be gentle with the seedling, but once you get a couple sets of light you can give her as much light as you have. Just keep your temps under control and with a 400 HPS I keep it 12" above the top of the plant with a cool tube. Depending on your hood you may go higher or a little lower.
