just how many hours of dark period are necessary to bud has anyone tried to bud with 14 hours of light and 10 hours of dark? how about 13 hours of light and 11 hours of dark? in ne ohio it doesnt get to 12/12 until sept 25th so im wondering when exactly will my greenhouse plants really start to bud?????? its 14 hours of light on august 10th its 13 hours of light on sept 3rd and like i said 12 hours of light on sept 25th my widow takes anywhere from 8 to 10 weeks to finish so im wondering just when i would be harvesting...... some educated help would be nice......how about someone that has grown widow outside/greenhouse around the east coast
12 Hours of darkness ATLEAST to bud.. from my understanding. BUT i have seen some plants auto flower even in 24/0
Yeah, like ^ said, 12 hours of dark is required AT LEAST, to induce flowering. Since your growing in an out door greenhouse, You're at the mercy of the Sun's natural schedule. =/
that being said then my plants wont even start flowering till sept 25 which means id be harvesting around november...... thats snow time here in ne ohio
