I've also read people who give their plants sometimes up to 72hrs darkness prior to flowering induce flowering faster than someone who just switched the timer.

The way I did it was at the end of the last day of veg, I left the lights off for the remainder of the following day, so it was like they just had a really long night, and then flipped em on. My plants sexed in two days, but I don't know if that had something to do with it, or the fact I vegged for 9 1/2 weeks. So I figure if you were to gradually decrease light, the plant would start producing what it needed to flower a little sooner when the lights were say running on the 14/10 or 13/11 cycle for that period of days, so when 12/12 hit they would be ready to bloom.

hmm...

I have read numerous times on the internet on the best way one should go about switching the lights from veg to flower. Some people say give 72hrs darkness and then start flower, others say just 24hrs, and even some have said that it doesn't matter, and just switch the lights but try to maintain the same mornings as veg. Isn't the whole point to try to imitate Rating: 5
