I'm going to be posting my full LED indoor grow as I start building and getting stuff in BUT here is a golden trick for indoor growers. Ya can thank me by sending me a nug
The Dry/Dark Cycle
This technique is awesome and gains close to the same yield increase as I got from adding Co2. You start by lowering the amount of water you are giving to your plants about 1 week before harvest. I typically reduce by about half. The goal is to have the containers bone dry at 3 days til harvest. At this point, 3 days before harvest, turn off your lights completely and forget about your plants. Then go in after the 3rd day and harvest as normal.
What this does is it tells the plant it is dying. The defense mechanism for this makes the plant send its resin from the leaves and stems into the buds (where it thinks it's seeds are). What happens is you literally lose less weight when drying, by replacing the water with resin.
Really looking forward to showing the world, that award winning, dense, connoisseur cannabis can be grown under just LEDs.
