Welcome to Overgrow @Cummings420, congratulations on your first grow the plants are looking frosty.
As to your question about a 600 watt lamp running on a 1000 watt ballast, I believe it is dangerous to run an undersized lamp on a HID ballast.
Overpowering a lamp should not be recommended please find a safe alternative for lighting your garden if that’s what you’re currently doing.
Underpowering a lamp isn’t recommended either.
I’ve read that it’s important to match the wattage of the lamp to the wattage of the ballast. Many blessings and much love

It’ll be a week off on Monday how about I run it only 6hrs a day an every 2 or 3 days or if u want me to leave it completely off I shall leave it off I did turn it on for few min other day to take pics than turned it off I only had it on for 2-3 minutes an the HPS light turned on few minutes after I turned off MH anywho thank u bay oh also was wondering if I should be checking mail next coupon days
I will let you know when mail goes out. Gotta find me stamps. Why are you turning MH on? Don’t they look happier without it? Leaves flatter? Less hot? In time you will be fluent in Ganjanese, the language of our plant. It will improve your understanding of all other languages you use as well.
Spray the new plant. Whiteflies are pesty but I’ve never seen a grow shut down by em. No telling whats on the new one. Please spray her.

Good job👍🏿. Not sure about that Sulfur in late flower but yeah that new plant should be sprayed every 3 days for at least 2 weeks. Believe it or not pests develop resistance to threats. That’s why a good IPM regimen has multiple weapons. Dr. Zymes, or anything that isn’t pyrethrin or Sulfur would be a great additon. Alternate every 3 days. Left right left right. With that open door you’ll have visitors. Inhospitable af is the goal.
Good shit friend.

Mosquito dunks is for the dirt. Youll water it in after allowing it to dissolve or separate. For fungus gnats. Not sure about the other 2 plants. Pics from today please. Spray the new 1 for sure though.
Peace

Would I be able to use that Dr Zymes on my 2 plants or no is there something that’s safe to spray on ur flowering flowers
Yea you could use Zymes, prolly the Captain Jacks too. Sand aint really a big deal unless you’re inhaling gnats. Same with the dunks.
