READ THIS SHIT!


Alright so I was just rippin my bong and a fly flew up on my moutpiece and i trapped it in the chamber and started rippin. i got it so high it passed the fuck out lol. I took a pitcure and attached it below. Well I'm stoned as fuck, and I got a crazy thought as I walked into my grow room. What if After about 4 weeks of vegging, you cut back an hour of the cycle a week until you get into the 12?12 and switch them over to hps. I'm thking this would immitate the outdoor sun cycle and produce bigger yields? If this is a method already sorry, and if I'm being stoned sorry lol. But this idea seems mint to me. What do you guys think?bongsmilie

I think you have to consider how much light an outdoor plant receives over a day of sunlight that penetrates flowering buds. When plants are switched over from veg to flowering its put on a 12/12 so the plant immediately stops vegging and puts all its energy into flowering. I was reading a thread on here about dropping an hour at a time. I was really really high in the sky so I dont remember everything it was saying... about the sun light vs a mh/hps, lumens off HID lamps lose power very quickly after about two feet down it drops dramatically from what I have read. I am not an experienced grow but read read read. I thought it was a good idea at 1st myself purly on the same thoughts you had....Hopefully this is somewhat helpful good luck on the grow. Set-up looks really good I wanna see how this one turns out!

Happy Growings

word, I actually just started doin this on my 1st little soil grow. I thought of the sun's natural cycle as less stress on my stinky ladies. I've been reducing light half an hour every day for a while now. I think I'm right around 16 hours dark (down from 22). I'm not sure how it's all gonna work out as It's an indoor-outdoor kinda gig and It's starting to get a little chilly...... i should probably finish flowering on them inside.......
