Is that 1200watts from the wall. Or just what it said on the ad. Alot of LEDs say they are 1000w but arnt
My LEDs say they are 1000w but they are 250 true watts each from the wall.

It's a 235w light but the diods on them are cheap. That's why I was asking how many watts it was plus blurple leds (they give off the blue/red light or purple when both on) are shit. Your plants should be way bigger for how old they are. I bought a light like that my first time, you might want to upgrade to a better one.

Rule of thumb I’ve read is 4-5 nodes . I’ve seen threads they topped at 2 . Really user choice . Variables like plant health are to take into account . It’s weed they’re resilient, they’ll bounce back usually .

5 - 6 modes I've read look for nugbuckets or nebula haze mainlining on YouTube if you want topping. There are also tutorials on here and online.

Ok thankyou very much for responding I'll go ahead and top them today :) should I add any nutrients yet?
I’m no expert by any means . Only giving you information I’ve read or researched or experienced.
you appear to have some kind of “ burn “ on the lower growth at one point . Not sure from what . New growth doesn’t really appear to have it . And as far as nutrients go , I’m not the one to ask . However , I will say , I tend to dose at half strength or less . And depending on your soil it could be hot meaning loaded with nutes . If it is . You should be good for a month . You have to find out what’s in your soil , and don’t over do the nutes . Also , future reference and out of everything I’m saying is most important on this page : don’t post pictures with your blurple and ask for advice . Post with plants in nature light . Most people won’t even entertain your post . Also post specs about your grow , soil ,light used, ph , ppm every detail helps the reader diag. And big bloom is not just for flower . I use the fox farm trio as well . Big bloom is gentle enough for all stages . It’s why it’s npk ratio is so low . Sorry for the book . Lit rn
