Light Cycles-I've already searched forum

  1. I searched the forum for light cycles and i didnt find what i was looking for.

    what i want to know is, If you leave the light cycle on 24/7 or 18:6 and NEVER change it, what will happen? If you leave it like that for a long time, and then switch to a flowering cycle, will it produce more, since the plant is larger? Or is the plant limited by genetics on how many buds it produces?
     
  2. some plants stay in permanant veg, they are used as mothers, to provide clones, these plants are usually handpicked as being F1's or F2's...........in simpler terms, the cream of the crop, so all their clones will be good too...........however some strians can't be used like ythat as mothers, because they flower when they want, even on 24/0............Peace out...........Sid
     
  3. Is there a website that defines those terms i put in red? I would like to be as efficient as possible when i start growing next week. More bud per plant = more efficient.

    Thanks for the answers highgirly420!
     
  4. Are these strains common? I'm gonna start with bagseeds, would i run into those strains with that? The bagseed is gonna be from the best bud i can find. I will definitely veg my plants longer if they will produce more buds. Now the question is, would it be worth it? Will the disadvantage of more time, outweigh the advantage of more bud? Could i just grow and extra plant in the same time it takes?
     
  5. when to trigger flowering is defined by how much space you have, as when put into flowering the plant will most probably double in size, take into account the size of the pot, 3 or 5 gallon, and the distance needed from the plant to the light, a 2' plant flowered will generally need 6 and a 1/2 feet of height, unless trained topped or fimmed............yes there are plenty of sites for topping etc.........here's a few handy sites for you..........
