extra darkness would just increase the flowering hormone... ? extra light would decrease and send back into veg but not 2 days worth

Cheers bro, so it wont trick the plants in anyway? Been reading storys on the internet saying it can knock em back into veg n that ha
I just did this experiment and worked like a charm:

If you are at the end of vegetative, you can darken 2 days, give light for 2 and darken for 2 again.

This will flip the girls into pre-flower starting week 2.

I like the dark.

It's a miracle; praise Jesus:fire:; HallelujaH!

Again i see the sense in that as i always see the big changes after the dark cycle, plants always look there healthiest too

Yes.

What do you think happens when you have a power outage?

actually keeping lights off for 48 hours before harvest will bring the resin out faster. its common
