there are no shortcuts...high time you guys realize this so we can move on...

I don''t know where you get your info. If you're trying to simulate an oncoming winter for your plants, days would gradually get shorter, and an exceptionally shorter photoperiod does result in more rapid growth of flowers, because the plant thinks it's going to die soon, or so I've read, and apparently, so I'm seeing with my own grow. Although I concede that my yield probably won't be as transcendant as it might be otherwise, since this plant was 5 months in vegetation it can accomodate this "shortcut." For the record, I don't want to harvest early just cuz I'm impatient, it's a matter of necessity to finish it before I go to Europe in 2 weeks
