flowering stage questions

Right now I have two 2ft t5 6500k lights above my plants..its time to change to the flowering stage and I'm wondering if I need to change the lights or just the time ratio

you need to change the bulbs and the light cycle. The bulbs for flowering should be 2700K(more orangish in color). I would get a stronger light though like a 400W HPS or add some 2700K cfl's into the mix for side lighting or you'll end up with some puny buds. Good luck!

bulbs should be more towards the red spectrum and the light schedule needs to be switched to 12/12

Your grow looks great. Keep up the good work! My first grow was under a T5 just like yours. I've had two other grows since under 400w. The first was the easiest! I've been seriously thinking of going straight T5 on my next grow.
