So more darkness than light is a bad thing? I'm talking 14 hours of darkness and 10 hours of light? I've read some people give them 72 hours of darkness during flowering?They'll flower....as long as plant has equal or less dark over light, the plant flowers. You can flower all the way on 14/10 or 16/8, however using a 12/12 ratio (50/50) gives your plant the greatest opportunity to photosynthesis while remaining in a flowering state.
You're probably thinking of people giving then 48-72 hrs right before harvesting them.So more darkness than light is a bad thing? I'm talking 14 hours of darkness and 10 hours of light? I've read some people give them 72 hours of darkness during flowering?
Yeah that might have been it... Cheers! I was about to get carried away with the idea more darkness was a good thing.You're probably thinking of people giving then 48-72 hrs right before harvesting them.
From what I can see they look good. Your pics are tiny.What do you think of them?
Sounds interesting, anyone else tried to experiment with this? What were your results?Yes..
more dark hrs matures flowers earlier (exp 11/13..10/14 will mature your crop faster and produce a good amount of thc but not as much bud weight)
more day hrs =more growth (exp. Turning your light 13/11 will give you bigger buds not as dense or potent)
I know guys that go:
2weeks (wk 1,2) 12/12 (to male assure they are fully transitioned tin flower)
3weeks (wk3,4,5) 13/11 (to have their buds fill out faster)
2weeks (wk6,7) 10/14 or 8/16 (to get sticky and mature)
They end up saving 1-2weeks every harvest this way
