Well what I'm getting at is that the " light" present at night, is simply not sufficeint for growth, from an intensity stand point; not to mention the exact moment of 'reverting' to veg state will surely be hard to "pin-down" your study seems to require more than a simple life cycle. Here, get an electronic flash, fire it once just at 1 plant, twice at another, three times at the next, all in darkness obvoiusly. any change within 2 days would certainly rule out wavelegth (since the stress would effectively pause growth), modern electronic flashes are between 5500-7000k at upto 50k lumens (whats in my camera box) (more than enough to cause 'stress') next set of plants test with a lantern type light turn it on and leave it for a few more hours each night, that would put the margin of error at upto 3-7days, but you'd figure out how much "ambient" light causes veg. Of course these ideas can be "tailored" to your experiment. :stoned: or just leave it in veg at 18/6 and flower of 12/12 and grow bug fat buds :stoned:
4x5 Reviewed by 4x5 on . An experiment in regards to stray light and light cycle interuption... I am going to be conducting a little experiment over the next few months. The basis for my experiment will be how much light is needed in order to interupt, stress and revert the flowering plants back into veg growth. The reason I am doing this is because I always see posters asking about absolute darkness and flowering. i have also seen it stated in various books that grow area MUST be kept completely dark. Is COMPLETE darkness needed or is it just another optimization factor that is Rating: 5
