I tried do exactly that and two of my plants turned into hermies. Luckily I caught them fast enough.i'm due harvesting within the next two weeks or so and i've been reading that some people reckon that moving from 12/12 to 14/10 makes the plant throw a little more effort at finishing and therefore bulking the buds up. anyone got any opinions or experience on this?
Iv heard somthing similar to this to......In the last couple weeks of flowering it is "acceptable" to increase the light cycle. It makes the plants think the end of their life is very near (aka seasons changing days going longer) so they put out their last little "umph" to produce slightly more. It also "cooks" the THC and increases the potency by just a bit. When a plant tries to go hermie from light stress its a survival instinct. I've done a few grows increasing the light cycle but I never heard giving em 14 hours light. Increase the light by 30 min to an hour if any. I personally dont go higher then 30 min extra, the THC seeds video covers this at the end and thats where I got the idea to try it. Does it work? I couldn't tell ya cause you never really know unless you have multiple grow rooms with the exact same equipment and the same strains and do a controlled experiment. But I can say I always end up with some kick ass smoke
Yeah 72 hours darkness before harvest is supposed to really increase its resin production. I could never wait the 72 hours to try it out, I always get way to excited lmaoIv heard somthing similar to this to......
i heard that you can give it 72 hrs of dark before harvest. It tell the buds thats there time is coming to a end and they have like one more spirt.........but this is just what iv heard, i havent tried any of this......
so with that said lol good luck
