I am growing in coco, the food schedule I am working to, cuts PK 2 weeks before harvest and food 1 week before. But the coco specific schedule cuts PK 3 weeks before harvest and food 1 week before. I'm thinking of splitting the difference and doing 2.5 weeks.
normally the last feeding i do is about 2 weeks before the end of harvest...i flush 1 week before harvest then last watering is carbo-load then darkness for 48 hours and chop :jointsmile:
I pk right at 3 weeks into flower...use it for 1 week and done. then I continue normal nute schedule until the last week the I use only water to flush...
y darkness 4 48 hours wt dus it do? Im 3 weeks frm harvesting.. Shud i jst giv water last 2 weeks or is one week enuf? Yea dat canna schedule iz weird.. Sry 2 jak ur thread phatjay
Thanks for your input Str8 and Jord.
The darkness is part of a newish technique called "Stress Ripening" I used it on my last grow and it seemed to work. It is meant to improve taste, aroma, weight and strength. Can't really comment on weight, but it seemed to improve the taste, aroma and strength of my crop.Quote:

As I understand it, you add the darkness to your flush period. So you flush for 7 then dark for 2 days (some people do 3 days dark).
sweet i undastand cheers mate.. And u def notice the difference.?
Yup... I took one of the secondary buds before I did the SR and cured it properly. It wasn't as good as the buds after SR.Quote:
