darkness for the last week?

[LUDACRIS]

hello every1.. it this true, does it help with the thc?

NO just cut the photoperiod (turn lights off) when the plant/s are ready. Their is no advantage of any kind of dark period before the chop. This theory is a myth.

That seems like a good way to stress your plants and get nanners.

I use a different approach. I try and give them the perfect environment with no stress's at all.

You are still obsessed with this hermie and plant stress ideas you have in your mind. STABLE GENETICS CAN NOT TURN HERMIE !!!!!!!!!!
Are you really that stupid.

I've heard a few different theories on the matter. I believe the main point of 24-72 hours of darkness (and no watering) before harvest is to make the plant use up all the nutrients it has stored in the leaves to distribute to the buds. During periods of light leaves collect energy and during dark periods release it.

first off, fuck you !


second off, ill qoute your dumb ass to prove my point on this one.


1.The photoperiod (or time of planting using natural light) is the most important factor to consider for normal flowering.

2.If artificial light is used, the length of the photoperiod can influence sexual expression.

3.anytime the light cycle is cut to less than 11 hours, some intersexes or reversed plant usually develop.

4.First, good growing conditions lead to healthy plants and normal flowering: female and male plants occur in about equal numbers, with few (if any) intersexes or reversed plants. Poor growing conditions lead to reduced health and vigour, and oftentimes to confused sex in the adult plant. Second, the age of the plants seems to influence reversals.



All of that information I copied and pasted from....YOU


Ill use you as the"dipshit" source on this one. I guess your the one im getting all of this bad information from.

Your theory on the darkness and light periods are right but there is no need for any darkness at the end. Yes you can just stop watering them and let the soil dry out before chopping but it does NOT need to be in the dark.
I have done this before with a hermie i had beside 100% sinse plants that showed hermie signs (nanners) 2-3 weeks before it was ready to cut so i removed it from the grow room before the very few nanners it had and just left it in my kitchen to die by not watering it and waiting untill the plant was dying due to not watering. I then chopped it and it provided some super heavy smoke as the plant will suck up every nute or water left in the soil until it dies.
My plant had only 3-4 nanners before i removed it and let it die.

Sorry but thats uncalled for.

Its one thing to disagree but to insult dru is not the right thing.


Ive seen a few things you have said on other posts that were not the best information but I didnt say anything.

This seems like another post of the same.



Not only have I tried it but the person in the thread tried it with success. Maybe you were unlucky in having success with it.

I agree with dru when he said you can stress the plant by changing the cycle from 12/12 to 0/24 back to 12/12 after a couple of days.

Also cannabis has the ability to go hermy in situations where it feels that something is wrong (stress) and not normal. It tries to protect the species by self polinating. Or so ive read...

I dont think you can breed out the self preservation methods of the plant or have "good genetics" that dont try and preserve themselves in dire situations, but who knows.

:jointsmile:

If im wrong please show me some reputable sources.

You aint got a clue mate. And you said you were leaving me alone ?????
Sometimes trolls just cant stop handing out abuse when proved wrong.
Why not go and stalk somebody else.

i did leave you alone, this post was from earlier last night.


thanks for the back up GToD, I was waiting for someone who has stressed a plant to nanners too chime in.

seriously though, I pulled every last one of those facts from one of your previous posts. How can you ignore that fact that your source even disagrees with you.


You said all of those things.


Now in the last few days you have told Me, GetThisOrDie, and Space needle that we are completely wrong. All of us have been on these forums for a while and we are always open to new ideas and techniques. Its very rude of you to think that your some guru and tell us we dont know what we are talking about.

We just ask for your sources, and you give us shit. Prove us wrong and we will humbly agree with you.

What you are saying goes against every marijuana cultivation book, every article, every grow,and every forum post i have ever read or seen.


and your source, well.....it never says one thing about plants being genetic hermies and how stress has no effect of sex. It actually says that stress, especially photoperiod stress, can have profound effects on causing intersex plants.


but like i said earlier, this post was from before we talked. Im tired of talking about hermies. My interest is strictly in FEMALES.

You aint read much then have you or can you ???????.
I dont need to prove anything to you or anybody else and if this continues i will report you and this time might not be just a warning.
(just go away troll).
