Ok so after veg I tried a new thing of leaving in dark for 36 hours. I put a heater on outside of tent with tent slightly open, heater was on a timer but something went wrong And my 3 babies branches and leaves are now all crispy. I was going to trim the bottom branches off anyways. But now I have pretty much cut all branches off to a 1cm of the main stem. Roots are fine and main stem are fine on all 3. I have turned the light now and am pretty much hoping for the best to be honest.
Anybody got any information/advice or has had this happened. Only my 2nd grow so all help is appreciated. Plant height is now 10 inches.

Your new thing did not work, I am not sure you'll find growers with experience in what you have done. ;-) regards,

Like hsfkush said, the 36 hour thing is right before harvest, not flipping. Pix would be greatly helpful. To induce the flowering hormones quicker just switch to 10/14 instead of total darkness.

Ive heard of people giving 24 hours of darkness before switching to flowering schedule, but from what I know this method is used to spot preflowers on seed plants to identify the males from the females earlyi could be wrong though

Why did you put them in the dark prior to 12/12? What's your theory on that? This I gotta hear

He probably read it on here. No shortage of stupidity on here. :) Just gotta lean who the growers are and the nonsense to avoid, like driving nails through the stems or letting your cat piss on them, etc.

Did hear it on a forum to leave 36 hours after veg, to hurry the process from
Veg to flower. Set up is in hydro. Not sure how to upload a pic. But it is literally the stem and a few branches that are about 1cm.
Take it this is a 1st for most as no one has no IdeA what is going to happen.

The real WTF? is why you put the heater blowing into your tent, plants like light not heat :wall: regards,

It's 6 degrees outside that's why. Close to minus on a night. Logic was there to keep temps consistent. Hay u win some u loose some ay

Quite easy to post a pic. When replying go to "Go Advanced" then scroll down a wee bit and you'll see a button called "Managed Attachments" click that bad boy. Simply select the files like you would on facebook or something then upload :)

I've been having the same problem the last couple of days, I click on manage attachments and it does nothing. I just reloaded my PC and it did the exact same thing. It's like one day this site was fine and then it changed overnight? Has anyone else noticed this?

If you cut all branches, do you have any leaves left? If not, toss it.
