24 hours light for vegging then total darkness 24-36 hours, then 13 flowering?

[maxsuperdanks]

Could I potentially flower under 24 hours of light, then when I want to flour put the plants in total darkness for 24-36 hours and then go to 13/11 to induce flowering faster?

So I'm never posting sober here again.



Ok, so vegging 24 hours light, flowering under 13 after 36 hour dark period?

you can veg for 24 and then flower for 13 but the extra hour, especially in early flowering, isn't gonna help, it might even slow things down a little.

what about 36 hour dark period to induce flowering?

Also, 13/11 usually produces bigger buds, more yeild, but longer maturation time.

I use 24 hour veg - 48 hours dark - 12/12 flower.
I know a lot of growers, and I don't know anyone who has used 11/13 more than once.

so the 48 hour dark period just helps facilitate flowering?

I'll try that then. It shouldn't make much difference (bulk wise) doing LST in a sea of green style.
