cfls for flowering could i use bue for a short while ??

Can anyone help me, Im on my first grow (1 plant bagseed) on week 7 (18/6) of veg using 2 45w 6400k daylight blue and 1 14w cfls. I'm gettin a 300w red spectrum 2700k with reflector to flower and use the blue bulbs for side lighting but i wont have this new light for about 2 weeks. its showing female pre flowers already and geting verry big. Would it be ok if i fliped the lights to 12/12 using the daylight bulbs just untill i get the 300w red cfl ? Peace

Wait the two weeks unless she start to autoflower, you will be much happier, and you can still use those bulbs with your new one

what is autoflower ? is that pre flowers?

Some strains autoflower meaning they flower without changin the light. Some strains do this because where the strin originated from the sun shines more or less there. You can put it to 12/12 for 3 days starting today and then switch back to 18/6 or w,e your doing

shes got pre flowers and the light has always been 18/6 does that mean its a autoflower plant

No, post a pic of the preflowers

sorry not the best photos but u can make them out. thanks for ur advice

You'll be fine either way. Just make sure to get those 2700k bulbs in there as soon as possible. Also, get some light to that lower parts of the plant. GL!

i did my whole flower on 6500k...it works

Ok thanks guys, yeah i will get a cuple 45w 2700k for them lower parts and use the blue ones to. Cheers

Some people on here run their whole set up in one color spectrum . But I prefer a mixture of 2700&6500 k. Gl on whatever you deceide

yeah cheers, im just guna flip the lights to 12/12 on monday using the blue spectrum 6400k CFLs. then hopefully by the next monday after i will have the 300w 2700k.

sorry for the wait, sure youve been helped now. you still got a week, maybe two before you will be able to determine. you and i are right arounf the same growth state.
