Lighting About bloom lights (Fruit automatic)

[giogio8]

Hello people!
It's my first autoflower grow and I would like to ask for your help.

She is under a 150W cfl grow light and I would like to know when I must replace it with a 150W cfl bloom light.
I am reading in the description:

"In addition, it is larger than other automatics and flowers in only 60 to 65 days top and produces abundant sweet-smelling resin."

It's now in 31st day of grow.

Thanks for all the help!

You have the start of preflowers and she will start to really shoot up.It's to early for bloom lights so wait until you see main pistols starting and vertical growt has slowed.

Thanks! So I will go with the grow guide for autoflowers I read here.
Do you think 150W are enough for 1 plant?

Is it just the 1 cfl bulb? If so you may want to add a couple of smaller bulbs to the sides as cfls have poor penetration so if for instance the bulb is above the plant you may aswell right off the lower part of the plant as the light goodness just wont be that effective down there.

I used to grow under 2 x 250w cfls in a cabinet and even with those the lower buds wouldnt really develop."My 2 cents"

Yep add a couple cfl then u can change spectrum gradually too. I grew with couple high power led lights and used cfl to supplement and id swap one bulb from 5000k to 2700k then day or two later swap another bulb till I had all cfl on 2700k for end of grow.
