Had my light on bloom: cringe

[Akephalon]

Hey all,

So I just realized that I've had my light on bloom for the last week over my autos, which I only just transplanted from seedling. The top few leaves are growing pistils.

How badly have I messed up this grow? Can I just turn the light on to veg and hope for the best?

Just bloom or both?

With the light I have you hit both switches to turn on bloom. I had both switches on.

That's fine, more light the better.

More light = Good
No worries!

I'd rather not have them in bloom yet though - they're only a week or so old. Will they just go into bloom when they want to? I realize that they're autos, but I'd rather not have finished plants that are tiny.

Auto flowers choose when to bloom. Photo period you set to bloom by changing how much time then get light. The ammoun of light is irrelevant.

The settings are for their spectrum. The veg setting is more of a blue spectrum to help stem growth. Veg is more red spectrum to assist flower growth.

Having both just adds more total light

Run it 18hr on/ start to finsh.

Alright, thank to both of you for putting my mind at ease. I'll switch it back and just leave it. I appreciate the help!
