Nope they'll never start flowering. 12 hrs on , 5.5 off 1 on 5.5 off. It'll save you a shit ton as long as you have 1000w power greater or equivalent. I stand behind it it works and a lot of big name places do it too

Every month my power bill is 800-1200. Every month I get a cut off notice because it's over 500. Why the fuck is my neighbor (another business) coming to me and telling me that the power company is sharing my billing information with them. Is this even legal?
I'm so pissed, I taste ammonia.

Illegal as fuck for them to share your billing info unless he is your landlord and utilities run thru him. Besides that they aren't allowed to without a warrant definitely not to a random neighbor

I can't imagine any justification for it. Your bills are supposed to be private. That's nuts I'd be calling em asking wtf is going on

What keeps them from stretching?

Again it certainly could have been me but I did find that my yield suffered and I did get longer spacing. May try it again sometime, it was a long time ago that I tried it. I read about it on the old boards and it was poinsettia growers I thought that had perfected it to keep plants in veg till just before Christmas lol.

 

[Budley Doright]

Ah yes, nice price lol. I gotta pay to play in paradise though so i can't really complain

I can ..... and this is not, at 95 and 100% humidity, paradise lol. But hey it rained today, first time in 6 weeks .

Guess ill just have to try it one day.

Well they did stay in veg which was pretty cool. Others seem to have great luck, again there wasn't anyone doing it really at the time and I was motivated by the savings. Did it once a nd wasn't happy so ditched it .

You have them on that long in the veg room(s) anyways.

Only for a month tho bro not 3-4 months. So your saying that if i veg and flower in the same tent and only veg 3-4 weeks then go 12/12 my bill is gonna be the same as if i were to grow a auto light on 24hrs a day or even 18/6 my bill will be the same how does that make sense?

I'm not telling you to change anything.

You are talking about one room. I'm talking large setup.

You can take one light and flower two rooms by leaving the light on 24 hours a day? More than one way to skin a cat.

Like I said if I were commercial I would be running auto and photos.

And thats if you have a veg room white boy

They don't go into flower. Your breaking up the photoperiod so they only at most has 5.5 hours of darkness at a time. They are fooled into thinking they are in veg. Again gotta have atleast 1000w equivalent or stronger for it to work. But I love it. Jungle Boyz in Cali use it with their gavitas and swear better growth. They are one of the few elites of growing in my book. Absolutely insane weed. But Ill swear by it too noticed no diff in growth rate but better root growth

Lets say for example, if i start some seeds under 12/5/1 they will have no more stretch then the ones started under 18/6?
I know for damn sure my sprouts under my gavita at 12/12 stretch much more then leaving them at 18/6 but im just not convinced that adding an hour in between dark hours would keep them from stretching even though they cant flower yet. I would just need to try it for myself lol

Well at 12/12 they'll stretch. 12/1 should be better growth. I mean my plants didn't stretch really at all if any
