How much light is necessary for a female plant to produce seeds. Can I use lower light levels then normal flowering??

trying to use a smaller space with less air flow.

You want the most light possible. Seed creation requires a lot of the plant's energy, and to create energy, the plant needs a lot of light.

Male plants producing pollen can be put under less light, but seeded female plants can not be.

Lower light levels to produce seed will be fine. Plants will adapt to their environment. You may need to flower a bit longer under lower light levels in order for the seeds to fully mature.

Good Luck!

30w led light from amazon in a small 2x2x3 give you about 30 to 50 seeds per plant (5plants total) in 9 to 10 weeks. Seeds sprout 100%.

Id use all the light possible, and all the airflow possible. Why give the plant short rift when its going to be producing a lot of physical material? It takes Light for metabolism....

IMHO its like cutting back food, and water when your training for a marathon. It takes alot of energy to make seeds. Sure they will grow under less light. They will also develop more slowly, and also may be less vigorous than those grown under optimal conditions.

Weed is a really tough plant, and will usually adapt, but I would never cut my plants short unless I just really had to.
