Hi there, have just planted 4 seeds and now 10 days later they have go to the stage where they are between 1 and 2 inches high. the problem is that i have had to change the site which they are going o be in. at the moment they are a light cycle to start at 6 in the morning and finishing at 9pm. the problem is the new site that i will be transferring them too will just get to hot in the daytime for this cycle with strong lights. can i change the plants, at this stage, so that the light comes on at night instead of the morning so i can have them lit overnight when i can exhaust the not so hot air and bring in the cooler evening air from outside.

Thank you

Thank you , I was hoping tha this would be the answer, the plants only have 1 set of leaves so hoping that its too early for them to be stressed. I have made a note of the time and will make sure i change the timer to 16hrs. Appreciate your help. Many thanks.

young seedlings are, in my experience, more delicate and sensitive to stress than large, well established plants that are mature. I would recommend 18 hrs light, 6 hrs dark. find a way to measure the temp and humidity in your space. shoot for 70-85 degrees fahrenheit and like 50% humidity. you could probably transfer them to the new spot just fine.

Thank you.

All done last night and gave them 28hrs of light yesterday-today and then switched lights off from 11am-5pm from now on 5pm-11am on 11am-5pm off.

this sound right, right?

Thanks for your replies

If their still early on like the main coil branches havnt formed, you might shock them a little but it’s better to do what your looking for now in the early points before it’s too “”late specially for size a lot easier to move and organize small plants than ones when their in week 4 of veg. Time wise yeah you Can switch the hours and Whatever might be a smal case of shock but nothing that won’t fix it self.
