I am a first time grower looking to see if you have any arvice that will not cost me a fortune but will still help me with this grow. I’m using advanced nutrients. And cal mag. I only have one for sure female. the other theee I am not sure yet. They are almost 2 months old. Under 24 light

I am pretty sure they’re photos
Thank you sooo much!!!! I don’t have any idea if they are autos or photos. I will start giving them 6 hours of darkness. thank you so much for the advice 😊
Hi and welcome to the forums.
I saw your other posts and your plants look nice and healthy. Do you know if they are Autos or Photo Periods? It can make a difference on how you handle the lighting.
24 hours of light can be ok, especially for an auto but I think they would benefit from a dark period. For Photo Periods most people go with 18 hours of light with 6 of darkness. Autos can handle more light but I would still give them at least an hour of darkness.
Your basement set up could benefit from some 'Mylar'. Mylar sheets are very reflective material and you can buy large rolls fairly cheap. You can cut the sheets to size and hang them around your plants to get all you can from your lights. Go on to Amazon and look up 'Mylar Roll'. Mylar is usually what is inside a grow tent so this is as close as you can get for under $50.
Have fun! 😁
