Honestly i dont know when i was think maybe a couple more weeks whats your opinion?Looks good and healthy. When you flipping to flower?
I am new to growin sorry ...what spectrum would a flowering plant need ? Also how do i tell spectrum when purchasing such light ?Plants look good. But you're going to want more light for flower. And the correct spectrum . if you can money wise get another light. Even an inexpensive LED will increase your yield a lot from what you're running now. For $130-40 or less you'll have a nice harvest. Fyi, look on Craigslist or F Book marketplace. I see a lot of good lights cheap!
Also, be ready for your plants to double or triple in size when you start them into flowering. Thus the more light. Good looking plant, keep up.
Cool thanks for that all my worries of switchin to flower and my lighting questions are answered. I will remember that forever 35w per sq watt ruleAny warmish kind of light will do. 2700k to 3500k. It can even be a bunch of led screw in bulbs. As long as you have enough.
The formula is 35w/sq ft.
So if you're in a 2x2 space...
2x2=4x35=140w
This would be true watts, not equivalentcy. A 100w equivalent bulb is about 15w so you would want 9 or 10 of them I a 2x2.
As long as your spectrum is 2700k to 3500k and you follow the 35w per square foot rule, you will be happy!
7x100w eq 2700k led bulbs from the dollar store in a homemade 18x18x36 inch tent.
