that should be enough light...unless your growing a monster.
how long has it been flowering?you said its been growing for 2 months..how long was it vegged for.unless it was under a 12/12 light cycle from seed it wont be finished yet.most strains take at least 8 weeks to finish flowering..some can take 20 or more weeks if its a sativa.so if you vegged for 1 month..its been flowering for 1 month...then you at least have another month worth of flowering time or more

sounds like you need to switch to 12/12 if you havent allready done that.
the lights will work fine anyways. patients young padawan

autoflowering strains are very inconsistent...id say about 70% of them dont do what they say they do..some dont autoflower..ive seen short rider autos that was over 5 foot tall..then ive seen some of the supposed bigger autos not even get 5 inches tall.most of the breeders pushing autos dont seem to have the genetics close to be stable yet.hell nirvana pulled almost all of their autos last i heard.so forget what time they tell you they take to finish..its done when its done.i myself have grown 3 autos...was freebies...would never buy them.doubt ill grow them if i get them for free again.not worth the time and energy for a plant thats half as potent as most of the bagseeds ive grown

i kind of thought anout it being some fucked up genetics because i babied this sob and it still happened but yea im gonna let it finish and see what happens i have a c-99 hybrid that i got as a freebie for my next grow its not autoflower.........so just let it go until it looks ripe amber thrics
