I use 12/12 for the first 2-3 weeks (identify sex), then I put all the females under 10/14. I personally think this increases yield as the plants have a longer dark period to develop more buds.

this theory makes perfect sense as humans, plants, fish, birds usually tend to grow more while they are hibernating/asleep

this is an outdoor lighting period grow thread. thank you.

Sorry to dig this up. But does anyone have a more definitive answer? Can't find the article mentioned either

I have a winter crop going and the girls still need another 3-4 weeks. Light hours are starting to worry me. Can't find any bags big enough to place over the girls... lol
