I am finishing my veg- and have done some reading about putting it into between 24-36 hrs of darkness between flowering?

Has anyone done this or know about it?
what is the science behind it?

Would I be better off just going straight to 12/12

If you need to understand my specific setup, read my journal- i have been pretty specific and would be happy to answer any questions.

The sooner I get a response, the light has already timed out for the veg, and I must either wait 36hrs from 41mins ago, or start tomorrow morning and begin flowering then.

Thnx for any and all help!!!

Try the 24 hrs of darkness and see what happens I have heard of it, I amgoing to give it a try this thursday/friday. Let me know what you do.

Straight to 12/12 after the last period of darkness for the other light cycle. I think you'll be fine. Think about it... If bud normally grows outdoors, there is never a time where something like that would happen in nature. There's a gradual change in the light cycle outdoors, but doing the switch over for an indoor grow shouldn't be that big of a deal.

I did 36 hours with no light from veg to flower and it came out nice, had 3-5 new nodes opened up on all of my plants, also had hairs comes out within the first 2 days into flowering, so I would totally suggest everyone try it and see what happens to yours.

I think I will put one in 36 hrs dark, then put it 12 12 with another straight into 12 12 so I can really take note.

ok I have decided to go 36 with some and directly to 12 with others.
but...
Which ones should i put into 36, the small ones or big ones?
and how many in each, 11 doesnt divide evenly-...

ok well i got high... and forgot to pull some out... so all plants are going in for 36 hours of darkness...

aside from forgetting I also did a lot of reading last night, and cervantes and Arjan both recommend a minimum 24 hrs (cervantes) and Arjan says he sometimes goes up to 72 hrs! darkness... and the reading explained that it often puts 3-4 new nodes on the plant and helps the avoid stress in the transition...

We will see- thats what this first grow is all about, experimentation...

But i bet after the 36 hrs these girls will be really thirsty and demand light!
