I went 36 hours this time and at first I thought they stretched to much but now I think the stretch is good... looks like the colas are going to be bigger now...Quote:

hey bob what autos did you grow? Having issues with mine that refuse to flower....sigh
i have done the pakistan ryder and 14 others name your problem and i will try to help.some look like they are not gonna produce then the last 2-3 weeks they will explode. Patience.. But maybe there is somthing i can help you with . I would be more then happy.
I must be wierd, I cannot tell any difference with darkness before harvest. What exactly is the darkness doing? How? Why?
The question was in the title and it looks like I forgot it before I posted ha ha ha ah ha...Quote:

Not sure if this is your question but the theory is that the plants think that the world is coming to an end for at least the foreseeable future. No light! Oh shit, we are toast! So they produce like crazy to ensure survival of the species.
I'm interested in hearing from some gurus on this. Ice water? 72 hours of darkness? Is it meaningful?
well we went over 48 hours . I think it smells stronger and it really got sticky icky. Icky icky sorry fingers stuck to keys j/k. wheres rusty?
Sorry for reviving this old thread but I thought it fit well with my question.
On the seedbank 'attitude' website, the strain I chose 'white widow g-13' says in its description that the lights can be turned off for up to 2WEEKS!!!! You guys are talkin a few days, so it seems insane to go up to 2 weeks.... Any thoughts and suggestions on this one?
a friend of mine did white widow indoors . well he followed the breeder instructions and gave um 2 weeks of darkness. It was his first w.w grow. dont know if it helped, but that smoke was wack:stoned:
wack = no bueno? The face icon you used is throwing me off :P
Sorry i ment it wacked me. it was killer smoke..
In nature this doesn't happen, so I just keep them on schedule and chop em' down n' bag em' when they are ready.
I wonder if this theory even works. I am skeptical about it.
