Slow Flowering odd changes...

[Hpo777]

Hey guys first time grower. I swapped my 3 plants to flowering under a 1000w hps in my shed...due to a privacy issue I had to move them back inside into a small grow tent under t5s...that or trash them. My flowering slowed alot... is this normal? Should I ditch them and start more clones in a steadier environment?

Titan OG started from clones(healthy mom)
Ocean forest soil
General organics go box 1 time a week(suggested use)
About 3 ft tall and in 3 gallon pots

if t5 is all you got then its all you got. you can get a good buzz just dont expect an hps effect or yield. they look good too

Thank you for replying! I was worried it would stress them. Glad to hear you think they look good haha am I to expect slower flowering as well?

maybe slower flowering, maybe not the fault of your t5's too, many factors to consider. Feed lightly you be fine

Thanks for the advice I'll post a harvest pic after!

Look good to me! Just get thoes t5's as close as you can without burning them, also get a few 2700k cfl's.. dont trim, tuck the fan leaves behind a few branches and you will be able to get your cfl's very close to the bud sites

I'm using two LED bulbs in a clip on light type I had from my garage. Didn't have any cfls on hand. I'll post a pic in a moment

I think they look great. I bet you come out fine. I've grown some beasts with t5's. A lot of people bash them, but they will get the job done.

Your getting great advice here.

My 2 cents.....check the lumen output of your 1k watt. Compare to your t5 lumen output.
This will show you why growth has slowed. Usually t5s lack knockout power because of the lack of intense light. Look at your hps running. It will burn your eyeballs out. Look at your t5 you can stare at it all day.

Finish the grow and smoke it up!

Nameste.

hey guys! Just dropping in on am update. Went and bought a 150w hps subsystem light, got it cheap at my hydro shop. They are doing great and really started to get close to harvest! Very excited and hopefully the final hps will top it off better!
