Nope, I haven't noticed any timing differences. The other thing I don't see anymore is the top of the plant starting/maturing /finishing more rapidly than anywhere else, either. Since the whole plant matures en masse, it's much easier to time chop- which also happens on time.

Usual suspects for changing timing apply; air temperature and CO² being the biggest. Low substrate temps and even root shock can delay onset. Dry- both dry media and low RH- pushes faster, as does hotter.

Some strains, especially tropical sativa dominant varieties, need a stronger darkness signal to get the hint right away. This is why many growers like to give their plants 24 to 48 hours of continual darkness at flip.

TBH, my plants respond more like plants their size (big), rather than 'vertical'.

exactly..

Temps were my problem. I pulled a boner and was letting my temps get down to 40 f at night. I've since had to pull the vert and put in my hood. I was having problems with the leaves getting singed. Now the males are out and it's just the 3 girls (flowering well) I could put it back up, however I've ran into a big K def. thanks tystikk

I wish it was that cold. Battling 100 F days and 85 F nights. A/C is barely helping. I think the coils need to be cleaned or replaced. The A/c unit is only 10 months old. This summer is going to be 120 in the day and 100 at night... Its going to be volcanic.....lol

Keep those filters cleaned regularly, especially if you smoke herb in there bongsmilie and if the ac is barely helping still you should probably get a bigger/better ac!

I put in a new filter last week. But we have had a few sand storms the past few weeks. . Gnarly winds. I think the sand and dirt got in the a/c unit outside. The air induction system is completely sealed. No way to get in there..

ive noticed. digital acs dont work as well as the non digitals.. honestly.. i used a 6000btu ac.. with aircooled lights 7000w last summer.. and it kept my lights on around 78-82 and lights off aroudn 68-73 and i switched to a 8000btu digital .. and lights on went up to 83-88 an lights off to 70-78 depending on outside temps.. i switched back.. and it went down? . then i created a box for my ballasts.. and air cool my lights in the summer.. and the box for my ballast the heat is extracted threw a exhaust.. and last year.. i had the 6000btu window banger in.. and didnt have to even use it more then maybe 3 weeks.. only on the nights when it was above 70.. i just put a window fan in the window also.. and took in cool night time air. and my temps were fine.. temps dropped a ton when i exhausted my ballast heat.
