Is this too much lighting for my babies?

Will keep readers here posted on their progress; thanks.

Just so you know those will double/triple in size over the next week or 2.

I'm going to hold you to that! lol

 

[Redwasp]

If they dont we need to reevaluate the situation.

I mainlined Wendy. Ellie will get same treatment later on. Both plants now under one of my Viparspectra V450 lights. The light is 27" above plants. Does that seem OK given the size of the plants?

If you grow enough, you will find out planting in their final pots, is not that much slower, than transplanting, maybe a a day or two, but not much.
Transplanting is easy but if you have any slight problems, that is when you will see super slow growth, Slower than planting in their final pots, transplanting doesn't always go right. I don't care how good you are, it's easy to mess up transplanting, if you are not careful, .I know I don't transplant autos anymore, just for that reason. Where you slow them down in their final pots is by overwatering them, it's not the final pot causing the problems.

Look at my latest post at the end of page 3. Latest pics from today. I also started the mainlining process on Wendy today.

Yes, that is fine.
(I have the Same Lights) I slowly lower my lights to about 24" when they are about that big. I let them grow to 21" from the lights before I start raising them again. I have found 21" to be a really effective Veg height

[growsomebuds]

Thank you, sir.

I got 17 ounces out of 2 vioerspectrum 450s last grow so dont think people can say they are cheap lights.

 

[growsomebuds]

That doesn't mean much w/o mentioning the quantity of plants. ;-)

 

[Campesino]

Yeah it does!
Quantity of plants is really beside the point. It is watts from the wall that matters and the efficiency that you deliver those watts to the plant(s). 8.5oz from a 450 Viparspectra is damn impressive whether it was one plant or 10.

 

[Redwasp]

It was a 2x4 area. And autos.

 

[Redwasp]

Next time just ask.

 

[Redwasp]

Oh wait 3 green crack under a foot tall each.. Very well trained.

Those look great to me to. Mine are about that age, and not quite as good as those, so I think your doing just fine. Soil grown always seem to take a little longer than Hydro or coco to, slowish, but the reward is worth it, at least for my tastes.
