ok so i have a quick question:

i currently have 4 flowering plants in my flower room, 2 that should be done within the next 1-2 weeks. and 2 others that still have 3-4 weeks left.

i have 3 two week old auto flowers, ppp, and bubba kush in my veg desk and originally planned for them to be in the flowering room under 20/4 lighting by now, but i miscalculated the finish time for my flowering girls.

which would be the better option:

leave the autos, ppp, bubba kush in the veg desk under 24 hr light, under 3 6500k 26w CFLs and 1 2700k 26w CFL.

or

place in flowering room which has a 400w hps, 3 2700k 46w CFLs, 4 26w CFLs but on a 12/12 light schedule for the next 3 or so weeks and on week 5 be switched to 20/4 light?

any answers/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. also +rep

Well depending on your schedule I would suggest keeping them in the grow cabinent for 6 hours and put them in the flowering room for 12 would be your best option. Otherwise I don't really know add up the lumens they would get in each set up and decide from there.

the flowering room definitely has a lot more lumens per square meter, but awesome suggestion; never thought to move them into the flowering room when the light comes on, gonna try it.

since the younger plants are auto flowers i would just leave them where they are untill the other plants are done. considering the fact thet the ppp and bk are going to flower whenever they want to, no matter the light cycle, you might as well kepp themin your 'veg box'.

but i would rename the veg box an 'auto box'

yeah I was thinkin that too they probably aren't even producing buds yet but anytime you can give them more light in the flowering room by all means do it I mean your already got the light on.
