Plants must have 12 hours of total darkness to induce flowering. Where I'm at - it makes more sense for me to give 12 hours of light at night and then turn off the lamps for 12 hours during the daytime. This will help me regulate temperature.


Here's my question: Of course I wll keep the room dark and will seal any obvious leaks, but if I miss one, am I totally screwed? I mean, in nature plants receive moonlight, no?

Another noo-b question: to induce flowering, should I err on the side of a little extra darkness? In other words if my timer is not totally accurate - should I make sure its getting over a little over twelve of dark or a little over 12 of light?

Thanks as always,
