Gas Lantern Routine has been around over 100 years (hence the name) they actually used gas lanterns to interrupt the night dark cycle in flowering green house plants. Tons of papers and research on this. I've been running it for years as it vastly reduces the stretch and cuts bout a week off finish times
"Being in a state of semi-flower/semi-vegetation under twelve hour lighting diverts energy throughout the plant in a confusing way. Recent evidence shows that twelve hour lighting is the cause of elongation of the branches and wider spacing of inter-node stems. Flowers and oils are under-produced, and vegetation continues, though at a decreased rate. The stored nutrients such as Nitrogen may not last long enough to sustain the flowering season, causing over or under-feeding complications. The finished weight of the medicine includes extra leaf produced by the semi vegetative state, which is naturally higher in carcinogens than the flowers, and requires extra labor to trim."

Never ever. I heard you talk about it before but it had not been vetted. So I found that last night and remembered somebody here was saying that and poof here it is. Seemed like mad sorcery +1

You sure those are trics and not fibers the plant makes? Some plants are hairy as hell and make a lot of fibers on their leafs / stems. Trics have heads, plant fibers do not they are like hairs but really small, check that under a scope.

Say what? Gas Lantern lighting does put a plant in a semi-flower/semi-veg state. You just made that up.

I have 2 sets of strains in veg right now that have this occurring as well and one of each set has trichomes on the fan leaves but the counterpart of the same strain doesn't and the slower growing ones have the Trichomes. But they also emit a strong stank when I cut off a leaf hopefully the ones that dont have Trichomes aren't males but we will see any ideas?
