So I had a thought...

I do think that it would have a maybe a slight minor effect ni the increase of THC on your plant because of more hours of darkness.

ForgetClassC -- I think you should quit smoking weed, or even growing it for that matter. It clearly doesnt make you happier like it does to 3/4 of the other members. All buddy was doing was asking a simple question, forget the search bar sometimes people want a quick and straight up answer to there question and not a 1/2 answered question from someone else's. So please if this is not your thread please dont trash it for him. Pay the same curtousy to him that anyone would to you. Thanks

Interesting in my eyes Bcals -- Keep your mind flowing -- give it a try!.

EDIT -- For my lights I leave them on 24 hours to veg, they show sex in 1month and are fucking monsters. I flowered them 1 month and a few weeks into veg and theyre insane ( Check my log if you may ). I just switched from 24/24 to 12/12 immediatly and it works fine for me!

Am I going crazy here? All I did was say what he said. Maybe he's in politics, do what I say not what I do.

I'd like to do it this way, but I don't have the time. I wouldn't think it'd make that much difference though. Flowering still works.... I think the abrupt change just introduces a stress on the plant (an unnatural one at that), but it's been shown that this stress can be recovered from. Maybe it would increase yields by never being stressed, but I bet it would be a negligible increase.

You know, this is still not imitating nature. It's probably less stress, but in the summer each successive day is only shorter by like ~1 minute or so!!! THAT would be a PAIN IN THE ASS to recreate!

Not at all. You get a photo-electric switch and grow during the natural day shortening season. Then your light goes on at sunrise and off at sunset. At least then you can grow 3 groups, 1 outdoor, 1 indoor on abrupt change and one on graded change and judge the results.

This is my plan...if I ever aquire the means.

Quit filling up this thread with your nonsense, if you cant contribute then dont post anything at all. What you said was dickish and you know that, dont go beating around the bush to sugar coat it. Now be a man, give it up, and quit ruining this thread, there is alot of constructive conversation going on here, wether is a new or old topic, people can do as they may. Its the admins choice if he wants to remove it because there's a more information efficient thread on here, or let it stay and see where it goes. Thanks "C"

Also I could see a benefit for plants that are specifically for outdoors as they're used to the more different lighting schedules, hense possibly giving them better results? I say give it a go bcal.

I like this idea, it may be the only real way to tell. Possible to only do two groups? Maybe just two outside, one under the sun, one in a tent with same weather conditions, only under "artificial sun". It's true with the strains though, there are so many crosses now and phenotypes that are designed to grow indoors and what not, and some that are best outdoors.

Yeah, you guys are definitely in politics.
