Is there an answer for perfect light cycle from the start to the end?

Altitude. I assume you lived higher than Denver. Have you ever stopped at Wing Wagon on your way through? I'm debating between a burger and a gyro that I'm about to order. They got good shit there. Their specialty is wings, but it's all good.

Los Amigos or something like that. Where's Willy's? Check out Wing Wagon sometime.

Edit: Nice I found it. Looks good. I gotta go there soon. Gotta try the fish, shrimp, and clams. I see they've got Rockey Mountain Oysters too. Gotta try that sometime, :lol:

Never been there. I've been to Crossroads in Pine. Never to Zoka's. Never even heard of it until now. That's close to the gun range I go shooting at though, so I'll have to check it out next time.

Glad I could teach you something.

Now here's something else you need to learn, :lol:

Exposure to light (not direct sunlight) was shown to be the greatest single factos in loss of cannabinoids

The stability of cannabis and its preparations on storage - PubMed

Solutions of pure cannabinoids, nine samples of herbal and two of resin cannabis (one freshly prepared) were stored in varying conditions for up to 2 years. Exposure to light (not direct sunlight) was shown to be the greatest single factos in loss of cannabinoids especially in solutions, which...

That's my first thread/grow in this forum in the current conditions. Before that i've grown long as time with shit lamps in a closet without any advice other than from my friend. Since i found the growing forums, bought real growing stuff i started a thread how to start growing in real conditions. and whatr i could do better? Before that i didn't know pretty much anything about growing but still grew good little plants without problems. So let's say i've grown about 3 years with "real advice" in a tent with all the products that would give me real results. The topic should've been different, "how to grow in the current conditions" or something like that, all those years in closet growing without real knowledge wouldn't give me any real answers for any anything advanced growing, i just knew defoliating and topping.

So all that doesn't count? Okay if you think that way but it doesn't bother me, still haven't got a real answer for this topic. I don't gives a f what you think, feel free to do that.

No lab tests, but I have done my own tests/research and I am getting bigger plants with 24 hours of light in veg. Consistently. More light equals more photosynthesis.

Stretch is just stem/longer inter nodal length. The 24/0 plants had more mass = bigger plant, fatter stems and more leaves. I want very little stretch. My plants are short, but they are wide. Someone growing tall trees will want a very different veg.

Why i would want as short plants as i can, when i can LST and top plants as easily? I have the space now to get big plants without keeping 24h lights, and it's hard to train plants that grow small, plenty of my plants have grown so slow/small they take forever to catch up with other plants. I want to keep it easier than growing small plants that take forever to grow.

How about staying on the topic and giving real answers from real studies. Oh they don't exist? I kinda guessed that before i even started this thread.

The bigger the plants the better for me. I'm in no rush... They have another 5 weeks to fatten up :bigjoint:IMG_0332.PNG

Good for you man, do you have any thread to follow your grow? How many weeks/days is that in? Don't even know if that's your plant. I'd want to know more about your grow and follow it.

35 days in flower dude, they have got another 35 to go, my next grow I will post a grow journal, I'm nearly finished with this one now so there's not much point of starting a grow journal right now :bigjoint:

This thread is a mess.

I switched to 12/1 and 8/16 years ago and never looked back.

12 on, 5.5 off, 1 on, 5.5 off - veg
8 on, 16 off - bloom

It took me awhile to understand the differences but I won't go back now. It's easier to transplant outside from the indoor veg schedule also because it's similar to lantern lighting technique. I find that unworthy males tend to show flowers under 12/1 which helps in separating plants early. Good, solid males (and females) will only grow leaves until after flip.

Much less electricity usage and better plants IMO. Added bonus that my plants aren't as stressed out as they were with 24/0 veg. (18/6 was better than 24 for this reason also)

Cannabis only needs 8 hours of sunlight per day and then it has enough fuel for the day. The dark rest gives the rhizosphere a chance to recover.

I grow organic and likely hydro growers won't care about this.
