Hey guys just a quick note on my situation then a question..
So I lent a friend my DR60 (2x2x4) grow tent for a while until he could afford his own while I'm growing in my DR100L (3.5x3.5x6). Im currently in the final flush(week9) of flower with my serious seeds chronic under a 400 watt hps. Well last week my friend got his own tent and lights and gave me mine back so I started a new batch of 5 different strains..long story short I started the new seeds a few days ago in rockwool they are under my t5 grid. They are growing faster then I thought and are ready for buckets(I'm doing dwc). The 5 buckets won't fit in my smaller tent so my question is..can I move my chronic plant that is now under a 400 watt light into my smaller tent with a 250 watt light for this final week without issues, so I can get this next batch in buckets and going.

im not an expert here but if you have to you have to...you obviously wont obtain optimum results. Is it soil or hydro. A week in hydro is a bigger difference than in soil.
In the end though, your weed will still get you high

If they were still adding weight, then they should add less. Other than that, no big deal I guess.

It's Hydro (Deep Water Culture), the strain is Serious Seeds Chronic, Nute line up is the fox farm trio + additives for hydro, and it's in flush week (week 9 (60 days flowering)) so i don't think she's putting on too much weight anymore. i think she's just about ready for the chop but i want to let her go for a few more days to let some more trichs turn amber. I just didn't know if this would stress her out and mess something up. It's not my first grow but i've never had to switch to lower wattage before.

Thanks for the input guys. I'm going to start a new thread on my new multi strain grow soon...check it out if you want...i should have it up tonight.
 
For the sake of a week i would let em finish where they are under the 400,but as to your exact question i wouldnt think there would be much noticeable diff in result but 400 would be better.
