What kind of plant did y'all grow? I'm guessing it wasn't even close to the cannabis species, with different native habits, growing conditions, nutrients and such. Galss container to monitor roots? C'mon...more info...

Although Image said it was his opinion, and you acknowledged his saying it was his opinion...I'm surprised to see you jump in with your opinion as if it were fact. This debate has raged on forever because there is ample suggestions for supporting both sides, and most of us that believe in the darkness period (me included) are, at the very least, mimicking the general conditions in nature, without risking developmental stress. (and a larger electricity bill) So without supporting documentation, your words will have be added to the 'darkness not necessary' category.

In other words...the next time you decide to slam someone else's opinion, how about showing your proof?

Too many cannabis fables...not nearly enough documentation.
