First attempt at a 24-hour "Martian Method"

[salmayo]

I guess a good question now should be. Is that light above correct. IR and not FR for the plant clock?

Yes sal.... I went and checked your 24/12 page out. Thanks for the post:thumbsup:. I think I understand a little better now. More then likely I shouldn't need to fill all of the martin night with artifecial light. We should be able to have plenty of time to shift the spectrum and have natural darkness in the same 12 hour cycle... OH my, did I just give away a clue:jointsmile:

Not ruling out IR effects, but FR seems to be the better one to go with at the moment (Martian Science changes with progress).

I think it was "in the same 24 hour cycle...", I am typo king after all.

Trading slower AD spectrum time for ND/SID time, looks like the best starting place for first timers. Even the Martian NightBreak Test trades 15 for 15 minutes to start with. Once people get that you can't just trade hour for hour with different forms of Darkness, we think they'll get what they need to enbrace the power of the information here.

Another hurdle is that 12 hours of SID to us, looks like 10 hours SOD (Standard Outdoor Darkness) to the plant, but people are caught on 12 hours darkness (12/12) and uncomfortable with other (too) COMPLICATED methods or schedules.

(Write a book they tell me... ...like I'm too bored or something.)

Sal..... I'm one who believes very firmly that the more you give the more you receive.. I 100% believe you "shall receive" my friend.. Thanks for your time. I truly mean this. :thumbsup:

Thanks Dog. I'm stressin on this one a lot. It's a tightrope.
