okay well maybe i should explain myself...
if i were growing in a closet with 4 plants MAYBE i would let them go 60 days to try to add on weight and maybe wait for a higher percentage of trichs to turn...

but ive tried A LOT of experiments with the dream and my goal is to get the most yield PER YEAR and to do that... a lil over 7 weeks does best.

i guess it depends on yer set up... i remember back in the day i would let my few plants go as long as possible trying to get the most of it.

the math has been done... check it out:

on a 7 week cycle the room cost a average $100.00 per day (hard to believe right) and profits $300.00 per day (good deal right).

here's the problem : when the cycle is lengthened to 8, 9, 10 + weeks it will continue to cost $100.00 a day but will not continue to average the $300.00 a day profit due to growth slowing too much...the longer i let it go the more profit i lose even if the yield went up slightly.
basicly I've done my home work.
the reason I think the dream is so good is bcuz of its fast flowering time and yield and A+ quality. I personally cant afford to wait for 50/50 trichs or anything crazy like that. The quality is still A+ even when pulled early, lots of people prefere mine over the half amber trich dream cuz the taste and high are better.

also thought I should mention I know 7 other people growing dream, all have been growing it for well over a year some up to three years and I myself have grown it for a long spell and none of us let it go past 56 days.

so if your growing 2 plants under cfl's then let em go 10 weeks otherwise i would sugest staying at the 8 week mark max.
