Auto flower

So i have a 4 week old and its started to flower what should my plan be now just leave it as it is 18-6 light cycle water every 3 days feed every 6 or do i need to start changing things like lights they are under a 250 w mh but i also have a 400w hpl and does the feed stay at 6 or should i increase it for flowering

Don't change the light cycle at all.
Definitely change light for a bigger, more powerful light, more light = more bud.
The plant will let you know when it's hungry

Should i change to the 400 hpl now then

Should i change to the 400 hpl now then

If that's all you have then yeah, me personally i use a 600w with dimmible ballast so i can go down to 360w and right up to 660w.

If you can deal with the heat i'd have the 250 and the 400w in together

I only have 1 ballast and just change the bulbs but could invest in another soon

 

[Ian48]

I bought the 250W as i was told not to dim the ballast on a 400w down to 250w as it breaks them its a digital ballast as well

Dimming a ballast is not bad for it. Running a 400w bulb at 250w is bad for the bulb.

 

[Ian48]

Yes thats why i bought a 250w bulb
