Go with a light setup that will give ya 45-50 watts per sq ft (or more)...then you'll grow fat colas. The only substitute for horsepower is more horsepower.
I personally like to mix my lights....I run 2 autocobs and a mars hydro ts1000 in a small tent....and like the adjustability as I have plants flowering at different heights.

I have two sp250 I use for veg. They are good lights. But I would recommend the 320w kit from meiju on alibaba.

Hey, great work! Growing cannabis ain't easy and ya know what! Free buds are free. That's the great part!

I would suggest a new light, check out QB Boards and other inexpensive LED grow lights! you can upgrade very inexpensively on a budget and get improved results!

Keep it up!

I cut the top half of the plant off , as the bottom looked like it needed longer
Will a auto survive, or should I just cut the rest
Sorry for all the noob questions

Buy as much light as you can afford and then a little more. If ya have to start saving and use this grow as a learning experience. Harvest now and those buds will dry out very small. You will be disappointed. Patience. When you think they are ready give em a few more days. It takes 5 mins to boil an egg. If ya boil one for 3 minutes what do you think you will get?

I have two of these lights from meiju. Very bright but gets hot. You’ll need a portable ac depending on your climate.

That'll do nicely. You should be able to get around 360 - 370 watts from it.
30 watts per sq ft x 12 sq ft - 360 watts.
I run 2 of those type of boards on the same driver at 150 watts each.

Go for the Meijiu light. It's 320 watts and more diodes. The other one is 240 watts.
Lotta people use the Meijiu fixtures. Theyre mentioned a lot in the Chinese Knock Off Thread in the led section.
Never heard of the 1st company before.
