So while searching the net for possible damage I have done to my plant by having a broken timer for a few days (5 weeks into flower, 48 hours at least constant light)
I came across this by Ed Rosenthal which makes an interesting point. Plants do not need to be "12/12" in order to flower. They don't do that in nature, yet we all treat it as gospel for our indoor grows.
If a plant was on a 14/8 light cycle, when in flower, it receives 17% more light, which should mean bigger yields.
Anyone ever put this theory into practice?
The extract is here of anyone wants a source:
