nice i like it :clap: 8)

Get ready for the so called experts to jump on you any time soon and dismiss it :wall:.. Iam with you on this 100% because i have done both with & without darkness b4 harvest and definitely notice the extra frosty THC it creates on the buds with the 48 hour darkness.

What plant strain did you clone to test the with and without darkness theory?

I'd love to see your lab results between the two to compare.

Hey guys hope everyone is cool ..

just wondering what you guys think about putting the plant (s) into 48hours of darkness b4 you chop to increase “Trichomes” ?? Please only comment if you have Actually tried doing it and not any speculation .. Thank you

my idea behind doing it, is that it puts the plant (s) under stress thinking they are fully dying and as a result protect themselves through a defence mechanism by coating herself with THC?

just my 2 cents but would love to hear what u wonderful peeps think
tried it but feel it's a waste of time. I do still chop at lights on just because people say so

101% broscience.


To OP: It's my understanding the whole 48hrs darkness thing came from large scale commercial growers who would do so to cut down on their massive energy cost. Over multiple harvests throughout the year this can add up to a substantial sum of money.

For the rest of us, though, as one user commented, all you will be doing is saving yourself 1$ in energy bills.
