Having never grown indoors.I’ve grown outdoors since late 70’s with success .
My question is,I have two autos in pots that have been growing outdoors.both are about 5 weeks into flower(GSCE).I plan to bring them into my new indoor set up.at what power should I run the light(hlg 350r)? And at what distance above the plants.both have been trained to be flat and wide with string and hooks.not sure of the terminology for the training.anyway whatever input will be greatly appreciated.
5x3x80’ tent,hlg 350r,fresh air fan in ,carbon filter with fan fan out,dehumidifier (if needed)temp/humidity gauge.
Im new to this any pointers or input to develop my skills.thank you.
Watch out you dont bring in pests with the plants…you could get an infestation

Anything you can do to get best light coverage, and air flow, gonna be stiff at 5 weeks but spread and tie some or it might be good enough anyway.

If you havent brought them in yet doust them with capt jacks dead bug to be on the safe side and maybe again once inside. If inside spray when the lights go off so they dont burn, then do a bud wash after harvest.
@Jaysittinback ,ty for jumping in.they are very open and spread out now.
@Medicineman33 i have been treating them with jacks already but I will repeat before entering tent and after in .
What height above autos should the light be?ty

I just finished zkittlez autos under the 350R about six weeks ago. Even during flowering they didn’t like it close at all. HLG says 15-24". I stayed around 24" at notch 6/9 and got almost a pound dry from four. I’d suggest you start somewhere around there and power up or lower the light as they tolerate it.
Got a smart phone ? Download photone and shoot for 60 dli on a 20 hour schedule until the last couple weeks then lower it to 40 to prevent excessive foxtailing
I would say 24" up. Those lights are strong. Probably only will need 80%. If going to an 18/6 can probably go a little less. They are used to only 8 hours of GOOD sun and morning/evening dimmer. So with 18 hour or 16 of light you will surpass what they have been getting i think.
