My Hybrids did just fine under 13/11 so I’m running them again under that regime.
They’ve shown pistles after 6 days.
They should be done, on schedule at 10 Weeks. IMG_1378.jpeg

The reached maturity in 59 days. They looked better than I hoped.

What lighting you use? And just to assure myself; 13 day /11 night?
Nice and healthy cannopy :) your own crosses/genetics? Are you geowing them two to a pot? Good luck with the rest of flower :)
They’re Sativa Dream from Kanubia. They’re from seeds I feminized.
yes13 on. Three to a pot is best. The veg is a week or two.
Harvested yesterday. They were outstanding. Even my 12/12 Growmie was impressed

There's a trade with altering the lighting schedule from 12-12.

Same age different light/dark hours.

Less light hrs = less yeild faster, more light hrs = more yeild but longer to finish.

Strains make a difference. I had Sativas that never wanted to finish in my time frame. My hybrids were well done and the Sativa had a ways to go.
The harvest is drying so I’ll have a weight in a couple of weeks. This was the typical development for the strain I ran @59 days of 13/11 at harvest

Years ago I ran an ir halogen heat lamp for the last 30 mins of day and first 30 mins of night in my grow, I had read somewhere about the ir sending the plant straight to sleep as a result of some sort of phytochrome mechanism, I could never keep any genetics alive longer than a single grow though so I never had any conclusive evidence of any benefit but the idea was they'd finish earlier or finish on time and yield more. I was young, we fucked about a lot back then, I should've probably been concentrating on keeping clones alive though haha.

anyways cool idea, always worth tinkering, I once read a few posts by a botanist on an old al b fuct thread, he ran a 10on/12off schedule with equivalent dli to that of a normal 12/12 schedule, everyone thought he was nuts til he provided his credentials, he essentially shaved 2 hours a day off a flowering cycle and achieved the same results as his previous 12/12 runs
