Hello everyone. I am growing cannabis for 1 year it has been only 3 plants till now. I grow them indoor i have a light 90w led. My question is indoor led lights not bad for growing but for my new plants i use my balcony both of them are 1 month old. They get direct sunlight everyday till 11am to 4pm and i am in somewhere in middleeast sunlight is strong but other times sun is not directly hitting the plants. Which is right choice this balcony thing or 18 hr led light?
Thank you.

A 90 watt led is not much light at all. I'd put them in the sun for the five hours a day if you can. It's a hassle but if your able to move them back and forth that's what I'd do. Best thing would be to get more light if you can.

After the 5 hours of sun are they getting indirect light? 5 hours of direct sunlight then indirect light would do em better than the ufo

Yes they get indirect sunlight bw apartments in other times but i can’t be sure altough i studied biology. I wish i had a device that i can measure total light exposure somehow. Bc sun emits light in all spectrum in 5 hours and i don’t know the strenght of indirect sunlight when i compared to violet led. I am planing to use free apps of iphone that says that can measure light paramethers i will try tomorrow.

The balcony thing is only 5 hrs of light? You would want a solid 18-6 schedule. What do you do with plants once they've had their 5 hours of sun?
they just stay in balcony sun is not hitting them directly but still it is daytime with zero cloud in air.
