GLR was used in Victorian times to keep flowers almost ready to bloom so they would bloom when taken to market. And they actually used a gas lantern for that 1hour of light (since blurples weren't invented yet. lol)

i tried it: didn't like it. to hard to keep temps and RH stable for me.
It's interesting if you need to slow veg growth down?

appreciate the actual response bud…and was gas lantern what ya tried? Or 6/2? J/w since they’re a tad different….I’m going to set up a side by side experiment with 18/6 and 6/2 ( why not right?) and I’ll document it well (since some on here think I’m a moron for even suggesting it) and secretly hoping they just blast off…I’m sure if yours didn’t like it much, mine may not also, but it’s worth a shot. Happy growing

If you aren't using clones, then don't bother.
 
I’ve been reading a lot about 6/2 and want to try it but I’m unsure if I can just switch it after the dark period of the current 18/6? or should I ease into it kinda? maybe 9/3 and then 6/2 after?
I can always just wait until the next grow to try it out also, just figured I’d ask before just doing it…take care tho RIU fam and hope all is well
I run 18/6 or just 24 in veg and 12/12 or 13/11in flower that's all I know that works

Right on….I’ve only ever used 24/0 and 18/6 and then 12/12 so I’m kinda in the same boat….it’s not that it doesn’t work, just been seeing it more often so thought I’d ask
