Gradually build up lol but i was saying that I don't i just out 600w straight on but i have my light higher and they stretch but it works for me, if you're in a tent chopper shouldn't really pick it up and tbh unless your doing unit size grows they ain't interested anyway, anything under 100 plants they don't give a shit about plus they ain't got the recourses to deal with it, everyones bang at it lol
Hmm guess your probably right i used to ave it on in night. Then my mate got raided but he had 6 in loft and he kitted loft out so wernt in tent. And a chopper was looking fo a burgular who ran in his garden (how fucking unlucky lol) and that scared me then so Started doing it in the day but mins in bedroom, in tent so have loft space above, plus only one light. 
wont i fuck shit up switching it to night now?

Nah that'll be fine mate, 1 light
I usually change my times from day to night without issues

Put some pictures on please mate and it it all depends on how big, well structured roots etc and also how hot it will get with the 400w in your tent??
Well my fan controller should keep it at 29 hopefully. Its been at 29degrees at 200watts and fans been on 5%. Iv just knocked it up to 400watts to see how fan copes, still waiting for 4” intake fan to be delivered aswell.
humidity around 40 but ny humidifier has broke aswell now

Keep it at 200w and bring light a little closer, look like they're stretching

Bad, basically they are looking for the light (light to far away) you want tight plants nodes close together for big buds
Ohhh ok ill bring light down when im home. To be fair i only raised the light slightly this morning.
Update on heat...
Hot day today and turned lights up to 400watts this morning, its gone from sitting comfortable at 29 degrees (fan at 5%) to now sitting at 32 degrees with outake fan at 100%. My Inline fan few days away in the post...
goig to switch lights tonight. Hows best to do it? Currently 4am-10pm. Shall i just let them run till 10pm then leave off untill 5pm and then start (17:00-11:00am)

Switched to nights, fit a 4” inline fan (doesnt feel like its doing alot to be honest lol but cant be hurting, turned lights up to 400watts. Ill see how it copes. Still might struggle as its so warm out anyway
1 plant not looking too good to be fair. Might lose it and just have to soldier on with the one

Just stick with 250w for now, 400w too much as they are only small and aren't established well enough to deal with extra heat or stress
Glad you have said that mate I did drop
It back down to 200, struggling with keeping the heat down. Its 29 now with both fans full pelt and lights only at 200w. It is the hottest day of year though... so hopefully it gets easier when then temp drops outside
Debating wether to use my 6” as an intake and bring a 10” in for the outake, use quite a lot of power though

Wouldn't bother with the intake as your only bringing in more hot air, just use the 10Inch to outake
ok so these not doing so well now any ideas? Lights on through the night, thermometer is in the corners and sits at 29 degrees. Currently only on water with bit of silver bullet and take root (very minimal)

Yeah id put it in, but don't over do it thinking you need to play catch up, you'll just cause nute burn and damage even more, give HALF the recommended dose that it says on the bottle, they'll be fine and bounce back, tough little things
