@HMGRWN is my lamp specifications okay? Do I need to get something different? I can’t adjust any dimness or anything tho
First let me say I am not anywhere close to even rookie as far as lights.
From personal experience it seems lights are actually 10% what is “advertised”. ie: My MarsHydro T-1000 is actually rated as 150 but is probably closer to 100w usable in my grow space.
With that admittedly severely flawed logic, you have about 30w there.
Also I have noticed that purple hue is never from a good enough light.
In my worthless opinion, your light is enough for seedling and early veg.

@LongtimeListener_FirsttimeCaller Right on, we definitely have some similar looking plants! Keep me posted on your girl. Everything I’ve read so far about BK seems to be that they don’t really stick to their 8week timeline!

Yeah, those are stretching nicely. That cola should keep stacking up and fill in. Looking good.

Rained on her today…buds are soggy and hanging down. 
I hope they drip-dry by the weekend so I can chop her down. 
I’m tired of waiting on the amber to show more.

@HMGRWN @PurpNGold74 I just put HLG lights in a couple days ago, does she look “crispy”? Her pistils look burnt and her leaves are droopy, changing color.

They do look a little wilty.
She’s thirsty! That hlg is probably pushing temps a tad and intensity by the mile. If possible I would have gave her a day at 50% power or whatever and let her adjust to the big switch.
Forewarning!!!
These lights are POWERFUL. Photosynthesizing is in hogh demand so nutes AND water will be in higher demand. U will have to relearn her demands. I know they could handle thrice the feeding with my good lights and a watering a day or two sooner (depending on stage and pot size).

@HMGRWN @PurpNGold74 so I have been increasing water, but not quite as much because her bottom soil in the bucket is still pretty wet. I wish I had started in fabric pots!
Should I water more?
Plastic pots. How can you tell the bottoms wet? Maybe thats just a healthy rootball. Lol. How much are u pouring how often? N wat light did you switch too? The 600s?
@PurpNGold74 I actually used 5gal buckets and drilled several holes in the bottom for drainage. If I dig 5 or so inches down the side of the bucket, the soil is pretty wet. I also have a probe to measure.
I feed about 2 liters per day. The light I switched to is HLG rspec 135.
