    Default When to add another bulb + when to transplant after topping!!

    Hey,

    I currently have 3 plants in veg, they are about 4 nodes tall and I have already topped them once. How long do I wait before transplanting? I know I should have topped after but my mistake.

    I currently have 1 600Watt bulb dimmed to 400 over 3plants, when do I add my other light and increase them both to 600Watt?

    Thanks in advance

    I have them in plastic cups at the moment with drain holes in bottom, I can see some roots.

    I plan to use 2 600 Watt lights. Don't know if I should wait before flower or just add them now

    How long does seedling stage last? They sprouted 3 weeks ago and already at 4the node.

    I plan to top to get at least 8 colas, will my veg time go into the 9 week mark?

    I would, once they are in flower they will want as much light as possible in 12 hours.

    I’m growing autos and using 900w full spectrum panel, and I’m considering adding a 600w HPS into the mix when flowering starts. I just wanna see how much they can take without burning as I have all the time in the world to tend to them, working from home.
