    I wanted to know if anyone had heard of this (or used it). I read a recommendation that for flowering:

    Weeks 1 and 2 12 hrs on - 12 hrs off
    Weeks 3 and 4 11.5 on - 12.5 off (edited - wrong in publication = 25 instead of 24 total)
    Weeks 5 and 6 11 on - 13 off
    Weeks 7 and 8 10.5 on - 13.5 off

    It seems like a small change but sometimes small details make a big impact.
     
  2. Huh.....would like to see it done for :poop: and :yay:.......if you try it out report back with some stats and opinions!!
     
  3. Sure, I'll try to document with photos once I put them into flowering.

  4. I never heard of that. In nature it's the exact opposite. They start to flower as the days get shorter so I would have my doubts. If you have the time and space go for it. Post some pics. I like a good experiment.

  5. That's exactly what he described though, the days get shorter in his post no?

  7. Can't go wrong with 12/12 it's tried and tested plus it's much easier. After growing for a few years it gets extremely tedious. Just go with what works man that's my 2 cents anyway
