I have some concerns about shortening the day length like you plan. With only 10h but higher intensity, you maybe have the same DLI, but shorten the daylength has also an impact on phenotpys and ripening for instance.
As far as I know, a shorter daylength cause that the plants are finishing faster ... Sometimes by a week or more! How a plant response should be also strain dependent. A short flowering indika profits probably much less than a 12-14 week sativa.
We've had someone here once before who claimed to use 6h cycles with doubled intensity. But it turned out, everything was just useless blah blah... He suddenly stopped posting anything, lol!
You can try it, it probably works well with some strains. But I'm almost sure that sometimes the opposite will be the case. 12/12h rhythms have not been established as indoor standard daylength for best results for nothing.
For instance in jamaica they usually have a summer and a winter grow(13h vs. 11h daylength). Sometimes the plants not only show a totally different phenotyp than in the summer it yielded much less because it finished much earlier. Okay, that strain I'm talking about is fully adapted to the location but it shows in which direction it goes.
It is for sure an interesting project and it seems you know what you are doing. I'll definately follow the thread to see how it goes.
