What strain are you running that actually ambers? Must be that almost everything I'm running is too "new" to amber any more...
That's the deal. These ain't new strains. Bubblegum, GSC, and a no name sativa. Under 12/12 they'll go amber within the ripe window ( I have no clue what the no name will do, first time grown). Using the diminished cycle behind the Gas lantern seems to be pushing the window farther out. They're staying milk.
I'm running two cabinets. Gas lantern in both. 300watt LED in each. One bubblegum and the no name in cabinet 2. I'd have to check the calender for the exact time but those are in week 8. 59 day range. Bubblegum has a 8-9 window. GSC 9-10 week window...
Cabinet 1, bubblegum and GSC. Bubblegum was grown into the late days of flower. Cut down because she literally went bananas. 67 days. The GSC was cut this morning. 78days total.
Grown in two types of soil. One cheap, one expensive. Same size fabric pots. Light surface is 18" from the top colas.
Max temps, 76°f at the highest. 65° at night. 50% average humidity.
