Light schedule last week's of flowering

Post by Treetrunk »

Interested to know what people do at the end of flowering.
I've seen some people knocking a couple of hours off lights on and others going back to 18/6.
I'm talking photoperiod plants.
Does anyone try these?

24-48 hours of darkness before harvest. I'm not convinced of a benefit to this method, but I do it knowing that it won't harm the plant or reduce yields.
I recently was watching an ep of hydro huster and they were discussing the dark period and i'm sure one of them said they dont do a dark period, they just wait till just after lights out, as it depends on time of day you chop as your plant would know what time they go to sleep and they would send signals in the morning to wake up. So after 48 hours lets say, would the plant be still sending signal to wake up, as would they remember when lights were on or not.

usually right before they would normally come on, is something I'd recommend in either situation.
Now I can be happy as I've learnt something new today. Looks like a 5am start soon lmfao.
