What hormones are "acting" with 24hour light thinking winter is near? Not to be a dick but what are you saying? There is so much bullshit and bro science with cannabis. And behind all of it is real science. Not just what a grower "thinks" is going on. Thats how religions get started.
ok ,if i start my seeds in 24 hrs of light ,in solo cups half full of ocean forest,i bottom feed water only till they get third set of nodes,usally about 2 weeks,in 2 week time the roots are already at bottom of cup and stems begins to thicken,when the roots hit bottom they are just like kids and got the world in there hands and are fooled into thinking they growd,puberty like stage,flip into 12/12 light and bamm they are like wtf,hormones adjust to flower,they show sex and continue into flower,after sexing ,you are fucking with the hormones again by throwing them back to veg,veg them as long as you want and you should no how high you want them to grow and invision them growing twice as big in the flower room,me i usally go 6 weeks or 16inches max height and i flip them,works great give it a try and you will see what im talking about,i think the whole key behind this method is the half cup of ocean forest medium,ive done this in both soil and coco,yep ocean forest transplanted into coco and great runs. hope i explained that a little better,same concept go for breeding ,if you dust that female with the male ,takes no time for her to take and make you some fire,but you are still messing with the hormones ,just threw transaction of producing seeds with the energy going into making them,you can still get a buzz after harvesting beans,but the smoke is no were near the same value of the pheno as far as taste and buzz,if you dig me,all in all im jacking with the hormones to speed up the process of getting any males out of my veg room,unless it is a proper stud
