That depends on how much space you have above the plants too. After I installed my scrog they were 10 inches tall. In a week and a half since switch to 12/12 they are now 20-24 inches tall.

I forgot to mention they are Indica dominant nine pound hammer from my understanding they are not going to stretch that much my tenant is 6 ft tall

I don't think you would have any issues switching back you've just barley started the 12/12. Buds won't start for about 2 weeks after the switch.

First grow? Or still new?

I've only been growing a year now myself. So take my advice with a grain of salt. I've reveged a flower plant before. But haven't switched my lights back and forth. I take it you haven't bumped your bloom nutes up yet?

1st grow and I'm taking it easy with the newts giving it about 60% of the recommendations on the bottle.... I did 1 feeding of tiger bloom today at the recommend dose

I wouldn’t Be surprised to see hermies after doing something like that. You will be surprised how much stretch happens the first 3 weeks Especially if you don’t have your environment dialed and have light on/ lights off temp swings

3 days not 3 week

3 days not 3 week

So should I just stick to the 12 12 and avoid the Hermes

If it's your first grow I'd probably just stick with the 12/12... get some experience in before experiments

3 weeks is a typical stretch time for indicas. I wasn’t referring to his 3 days of 12/12. If I were you keep Them small for your first run. easier to manage. your room is 6ft, how close to the light can you get?

 

[Southernontariogrower]

Three days, your ok. A rainstorm that lasts two days will give less light than 12, I totally believe if you go back to 18 you'll be ok

Super close if need be... Right now its about a 14 inchs away... Should it be closer/further?

 

[Southernontariogrower]

up to them, I had to dim my light 5 weeks to get to full power

 

[Southernontariogrower]

Light is 132 watts, not so sure how far that will take you in flower

 

[Kindbud421]

Those indicas will most likely double in size. If they’re 1’ tall from soil now ,in flower stretch they will prob reach 2’ but that’s not just up. That’s out as well. How many do you have in your space?

2 plants

132 watts keep it short for sure. You won’t be penetrating much with that. You’ll just be growing stems. Some people say they need to be a certain age to develop the full profile but you are far from that. Get smokable bud on your first try and it’s a big win. Good luck in your grow brother!

I can't believe how they advertise leds, 600w light is 700 dollars if you buy hlg 600 r spec. Thats a damn good deal. For 600watts and a real solid light.
