I plan to add more rabbit manure to the top but not touching plant when they start to flower. As my research shows rabbit manure is high in phosphorus.

They're probably both T-12 or T-8.
Bring them down close, like 6 inches away. If they elongate, bring it a little closer. You can get fluoros extremely close. If they start getting big before your new light arrives, get some regular, plain old LED bulbs or curly CFL bulbs and light them up further.

The quick turn around and also I've been told they don't get as tall I didnt want them to be to tall for my tent. Once I move them in that is. Plus the 35% thc on this fat bastard strain was also a reason haha..

wow that's mega strong, when i was growing before (i am back after a break) unfortunately auto's were severely lacking in the THC part due to I'm assuming a genetic balance leaning too heavily towards ruderalis

I was personally sold on the time as well, that's what got me to do it. happy to see you've pulled the trigger and now there's no turning back.

excited for you LED? 1000w equivalent or 1000w draw from outlet? advertising and marketing is shit right now for quantum boards

I use t12 alot for clones and small seedlings theyare very forgiving but must be kept very close to the tops and theres no penetration , so once things pick up hav a plan b , even s its just a cfl or another 5k led household bulb,,i use those almost exclusively for clones and youngsters.

people don't give the love big modern cfls deserve IMO , it blew my mind when i realized how big and bright they can get. i used one once after my veg state to light an entire laundry room and lord was it overkill.

Question... I plant yesterday and water should I water again today or wait till the soul completely dries up or wait till it sprouts or what?

You’re at the damp/moist stage

You could in this stage even use a heavy spray bottle and moisten the dirt directly around it, nothing will be sucking the juice other than the rooms environment.

So little water needed at this stage

You did direct sow correct? 2-3 days should start seeing a little bump rasing up on the soil just before she breaks through.
