i have two 350watt led light for flowering should i change to those now

If you going to flower then once they are on 12/12 you would want to up the lighting. Going from. 18/6 to 12/12 mean 1/3 less time for light. So we increase light by 1/3 once we switch. If that makes sense

Mix the ratios as directed for stage of growth then dilute to 600ppm. Hard for me to look up thier feeding schedule ATM.

Yeah mix the ratio for the stage of growth as directed. The reduce the ppm by adding water until you get 600ppm.

Cool pics

I'm about to start a DWC grow (2x reservoir) and from all of the information I've read online, I've never come across anyone recommending water on top of the hydroton shooting at the plant. Is this a different variation on DWC?
