Hello , This is my first time to Post on this site and my second time even using a forum , as the last forum i used roll it up. org was very unprofessional , and the people very judgmental when u simply asked why and some even insulted u lots of egotistic people there. With that said I did some reading on this site before i Joined and It seems to be way more of a respectful site with better legit answers , Im hoping to make this my new home for my grow questions or issues.
So first order of business , This is my first grow , and everything seems to be going great.
But had some questions about the lighting periods and lights in general .
1. Do plants need direct sunlight when outside? So say 2-4hrs no sun on my balcony and then 5-6hrs direct sun would that be cool?
2.what If I do 8-9hours on my balacony * of course on sunny days only* and then the other 7-8hrs inside my grow tent lighting ?
3. As of right now im doing a 250W MH during my inside hours , when is a good time to switch to my 400W HPS? 2-3 weeks after sprouting ?
Thanks for any help in advance and hopefully on this forum I wont get any insulting comments or rude replies .
