Ok, so i'm in the last few weeks of flowering now. Probably about 2 weeks to a month from harvest. I am using cfls and I'm on a 12 12 cycle. I was wondering if I switched the light cycle to 24 hours for a few days, would this increase the bud size.

the only way you are going to get better bud size is with ideal grow enviornment and to use a bud promoter and hardner prior to flower cycle.

The only light change that is possible without freaking your girl(s) out is to reduce the amount of daylight by 5 mins a day, mimicing nature. You need a good multi input digital timer to do it though and it doesnt make your buds bigger, it slightly reduces you elec. bill though!
