Introduce far red mid flower?

Hi guys,

I've just received 2x 30watt 730nm cree LED light bars

Would I be causing the plants to shock if I introduce the lighting in week 5 of flower?

I have a 2mx2m tent

Worried introducing a new light cycle this far into flower might shock them and turn hermie.

Thoughts?

I would start with the 5-10 minute end of day treatments then go maybe to 15 mins max

As far as having them on all day I would just slowly introduce them

I wasn't wanting to run full time, just at the end of each day.
Wasn't sure if this might shock them introducing it this far in, but sounds like it will be sweet

It won't stress them it just signals the end of the day for the plant so it goes to bed quicker. It is actually good to wait until after the stretch for far red because it encourages stretch

Awesome cheers mate
I have two 30watt light bars, would I need one or both for a 2x2metre tent?
Don't want to over do it but I was thinking hanging one from each side
