Why would anyone alter what has been proven to work for decades.....sounds like a bunch of shit just to stir controversy....or are you gonna attempt to change mother nature next?
i like to personalize anything i own.... it wouldn't be personal if i did everything everyone else did. and nature? clouds on random days... some days longer than others. all types of weather shit and mother natures creatures... and your telling me some how a 13/17 light sched. is throwing its "nature" off balance? eh... i just figure this plant ended up on some capdaddy island and this jus so happens to be my nature ;) its indoor.. i play god in here.

One there is not enough hours of light per day the hormone will do it's thing and flowering begins. So technically it is length/number of hours of light and not hours of darkness that cause a plant to not flower or to flower ... but again, I am sure that some will say six of one, half a dozen of the other .. but in photoperiod plants, which cannabis is, flowering is controlled by how many hours of light it receives and as long as it is enough to inhibit the flowering hormone flowering will not occur.


blah blah blah


Evidently things that are technical facts are all nothing more than; "blah blah blah" to you but I thought at least someone here might like to know how photoperiod plants actually work.

A photoperiod is the duration of daily exposure to light, considered especially with regard to the effect of the exposure on growth and development. Cannabis is a photoperiod plant which technically means it is the amount of light that controls what it does, not the amount of dark.

You made it more than clear that learning actual proven facts are meaningless to you but possibly someone here might like to learn something or another now and then.

Do you believe that because your plant had the misfortune of ending up in your little indoor Gilligan's Island where you; "play god" that your playing will be able to alter thousands and thousands of years of evolution or what a REAL God might have created?

haha i read the first post where he said "who told plants that it was a 24 hour day?"

i was going to let him know that millions of years worth of evolution of autotrophs told them that the day was 24 hours... this kid is a jokester, a true clown, and on that note, im out.

how can people be talking shit when his plant is growing and looks fine, sure dont looked fucked up to me, dont worry about it people just always have to have things to bitch and talk shit about, most people do 24/0 or 20/4 or whatever for veg but is there a time of the year that is 24 hours of light? no but still grows fine

yea 12/12 works and could be the best but if the other way is working why not,,, let me no how everything turns out

everything turned out bomb!... next grow i will have a control for all these bored no life nit pickin 12/12 supporters ... same strain, same mother plant. i will set one to this sched. which is 13/17 and the other will flower in 12/12 .. we will see then for sure .. well at least with one strain. and i think next time i'll use better lights.. this grow was off cfls .

Yeah, don't ever attempt to improve current siuations or try new techniques! Never questioning 'old wisdom' is definitely the key to the brightest future possible. Always do what you're told! Thinking outside the box is for illegal border-hoppers.

what if i were to say otherwise?? and i didn't spend a million dollars trying to figure it out but simply common sense. do i have not the credibility they have? what if my blue dream has a thc content of 28% and there's didn't reach 21... then what? will you swear by the capdaddy? i didn't think so... none of that shit means anything mann.. and EVERY cannabis plant is different it would be impossible to have a set regiment on all cannabis plants... this is what lead me to my experiment.

literally thee dumbest thing i have ever heard. if these retarded words of yours were true . there would be no such thing as evolution. fucking stupid.

hi first grow.. and just thought hey.. why the fuck not..

like most of us on our first grow.. we read read read and do some more reading.
so i know enough to understand what happens with the plant and why it does what it does.. so when it came to flowering ... i asked myself... like im sure we all do..
more darkness? better response?
well through my research no one person can say that all cannabis plants will or will not. it really depends on that plant.

so i will testify to a 13/17 light schedule, yes im aware that its more than a 24 hour day.. but who told these plants a day was 24 hours? well im deceiving them and telling them days are 30 hours.
i'll keep you guys updated..View attachment 1341049
hahahahhaha you so funny man,, keep tryin you might get a little big of flowering but a MJ plant needs 12hr od dark to flower properle.. and due to photosynthesis a plant produces its flowers when it is dieing, and at 12/12 a MJ plant starts to think its dieing so it starts to flower,,, if you lower you lighting through out flowering you will get bigger buds again this is due to photosynthesis.... learn more about plants man hahaha

Your sarcastically made point is valid enough in regards to some things, but not to all. Certain things are what they are and they will always remain so, they are facts, and it is an injudicious thing to do to ignore them.

Using your logic someone might as well ignore what causes an aircraft wing to generate lift. Air traveling over a wing is affected by Bernoulli's principle just as it is by passing through a constriction in a tube. The constriction forces the air to speed up, causing a drop in pressure. Air traveling above and below a wing must reach the trailing edge in precisely the same amount of time. The curved shape of the upper wing creates a longer route for the air to travel. It's forced to accelerate in order to catch up with the bottom, creating the low pressure area and the resulting difference in pressure causes the wing to generate lift. Using your logic that old school wisdom should be ignored and someone might as well go ahead and reverse the design or create a new design that would not create the pressure differences needed to create lift and expect it to not only fly but to fly better.That would be the same sort of; "thinking outside the box" as you advocate.

What causes people like you, and the funky cold medina light schedule guy, to believe that such alterations is how things are done are possibly good new techniques and might be better is because you lack the knowledge and understanding of plants and plant functions and plant needs that is needed to realize that what you call; "thinking outside the box" is like someone simply not knowing that gravity exists and putting on a Superman costume and leaping off a tall building and actually expecting to be capable of flying.

Just because someone is ignorant of facts does not mean they do not exist and that they do not apply.

As the old saying goes, ignorance is bliss, so that must mean you are the most blissful person in the world.

And as I said, "Just because someone is ignorant of facts does not mean they do not exist and that they do not apply."
