one last note: you are almost there, even if the shock produces a few hermie seeds,
it's not the end of the world. better to have them warm at night, if that is an issue...imho.lw
Latewood not to argue but cannabis does not need a dark period during vegitative growth to rest from photosynthesis. I've used the 24/0 cycle for almost twelve years without one single problem. However 18/6 is a little easier on the power bill.
Trichome Creator Reviewed by Trichome Creator on . Change light cycle Right now I just started my 4th week of flowering. Currently the lights are on from 6am-6pm. However I was wondering if I could switch them to run from 7pm-7am? This way this will help keep them warmer since it's winter where I'm at. So which cycle would I have to miss? The light or dark? In other words will they have to be 24 hour light or 24 hour dark to get the time switched. Thanks for your help Rating: 5
