led veg and bloom switch

hi guys I am growing 10 fem cannabis plants all photoperiod plants 2 lemon strains 5 ak420 strains and 3 bcn critical xxl strains they are 12 days old. I am using a led light that I have used before for autoflowers the light has two switches one switch is for veg and the other switch is for bloom. on autoflowers I kept both the veg and bloom switch on at the same time as I was told it's better for them as they will grow faster and bigger but it would add to my electric bill but what I want to know is can I still use both switches on a photosynthesis plant as I did with a autoflower here is a photo of the switches thank you.

Photoperiod is the appropriate term, yes you can and should use both switches, and lastly that light is probably only good enough for 1 or 2 plants unless you are just using it for seedlings.

I wouldn't go over 10 plants with that 10 band beauty

In reality, you need more light. A lot more light to grow even two plants

Maybe as they are only 12 days old just run the blue for another week or so then both switches on.

look at the size of the light and I have another one so two of them will be enough for 8 plants no doubt but ten is cramping it in abit but I can get it done

That thing is a monster. What did the finished plants look like?

I wish I had photos to show you mate but I dont but they came out beautiful I did 10 mixed autoflowers black berry gum,amnisha,og kush and orange skunk the best one for me though was the BlackBerry gum it had the biggest buds and harvested the most this is my first time doing photoperiod plants under them but I know they will be cool

Turn both switches off then unplug it. Plug in a better light.
Voila

Sorry, perhaps I underestimated the power of your of light. Do you have any pics of 10 plants growing under two of those beasts?
