Outdoor Dinafem Auto Amnesia Balcony Grow

[Steve Haze]

4 Auto Amnesia germinated May 2, planted in 6.5 litre, tall square pots.
Grow medium is pro-mix HP with about 15 % more added perlite.
Plants germinated and stayed under a 600W HPS for the first ten days.
May 13 they were placed under a T5 48 fixture (4 ft. X 8 tubes) 6400 K, 54 watts each T5-HO tube.
May 16 they were put on the balcony, a south exposure, with approximately 8 hours per day of direct sunlight.
I've been using Greenhouse Seeds Powder Feeding nutrients, the Short Flowering type, Cal-Mag, and Canna's Rhizotonic and House and Garden's Roots Excelurator for the root zone.
I've also foliar fed them with Rhizotonic every 3 days.
Plants are currently 9 inches tall.
Balcony photos taken today May 17.

why the 600W HPS for the first ten days? I would think the T5's would be better.

And am I seeing flowers?

Hi hank, I was using the T5's, and the closet they're hung in to supplement a 430W HPS blooming 2 JTR plants.
And yes, you are seeing flowers on 2 of the 4 plants. While under HPS and T5's lights were on 24 hours. I share my living space with my plants and feel 24 on is better than interrupting their dark cycle.
I forgot to mention earlier the light cycle I've been using.

May 26 update, 2 of em are getting taller/lankier. I'll have to get rid of the milk crates soon, drop them down another 11 inches.
Approximately 60 days to go, should coincide well with our typically hot & humid early summers.
