help.. starting flowering question

  1. i used the search but didnt relly manage to come up with anything solid

    question being is it more bennificial (sp?) to start the plants off of 24 hour light and going on to their first night with a 24 hour period, a 36 hour period of dark?? or just starting it off right on 12/12, from 24/0.

    could this possibly perhaps hasten the budset? or would it just be more of a stress that could cause them darn he/she's :D
     
  2. usually ppl use 18/6 for pre-flowering to give the plant a bit of rest. I'd say go to 12/12 not 36 hours of direct light right when ya wanna begin flowering.
     
  3. what he said. i started a few days ago with 12/12 went from 18/6 even tied them down and they know whats up looks good.....
     
  4. clearly my oroginal point was missed... i did not question switching from light to dark as in light 24/0 and then going to 12/12 i ment the first NIGHT would be 24 hours if not even 36 hours of DARK then it would switch to 12/12
     
  5. no, just switch to 12/12... there's no need for 36 hours of darkness...
