HEY RIU. I've heard of a few growers leaving their room dark for the last week of growth. This supposedly is to increase resin production and overall taste and apperance of the buds. I wanted to know if there is any truth to this. thanks for the advise.

photosynthesis comes to a standstill. no light no new chlorophyll. chlorophyll bad mmmkay, makes hit smoother and less green when no chlorophyll.

UVB and a light would be better than the dark. increase resin.

The end

Do it for the last 48-72 hrs not a full week

I agree. Light > dark. And any chlorophyll, well it's not really an issue. that's what the dry and cure is for. I never noticed one bit of difference.
