Although we have arrived and exceeded the time to harvest according to the breeder's specifications, I have decided to keep them under the lamp a little bit more in order to see a last push. Furthermore I haven't seen too many amber colored trichomes so this helped me to maintain it. I don't have the right tools to observe them either, so I'm somewhat hesitant about the time of harvest. Maybe I'll cut the biggest ones and keep the little ones a little more under the light. Anyway I saw that pure sativas can stay flowering between 100-120 days so I think I'm not so wrong.

Hi @Wolvex! Short answer: yes it is bad for your plants. Once a plant is used to its light schedule, it will look for light during those hours, and if the photosynthesis process detects a change in that schedule, it may generates hormones disturbance. The plant may create blooming hormones and trigger the flowering, or it may start to change its gender and become hermaphrodite. Less than 12 hours of direct light everyday and it will bloom for sure. Despite what have been said by others, I've made some experimentations with light schedule on autoflowers and found that even autos are sensitive to changes in their light schedules. So once you set your timer, keep it on the same track, until you want to trigger flowering. Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information, and happy growing! 👊

Dude, you can higher the light efficiency much more if you upgrade the reflector you're using.

For a first grow you are doing insanely well. These look great dude. I wouldn’t worry too much about the size of the buds, especially this deep in. Just get ready to harvest when it is time.

@wolvex, with bat guano this summer i had burn and shitty result, i was making teas,maybe its too strong for me and same for you. I had no soil ph meter, but this time i will carry on understanding bat guano, it has to work, table spoon per gallon was too much and i left it for good last summer.
Dont know, does it changes ph, maybe tea should be brewed more than 24 hours, maybe less amount should be used....

@wolvex, my coment is more about how you should find why it was so crap, not about you or your grow even its about helping you to make small corections...
I still make mistakes after 30 years of gardening and almost ten of green. Just when people tried to be overpolite and call mistake good atempt its bad.
Hope and wish you huge harvests and 0 mistakes !
P.s. i would rethink two weeks + / - from week 13 ;)

@AsNoriu, yes, I'm agreed with you, this is not well done, I see a very poor harvest and I think it is due to the lack of fertilizer, specially in flowering. However this game is about making mistakes and correcting them so I know what to do next time, don't supossing that infusions of banana and potato peels are enough as fertilizer.I also added guano to the ground at the beginning of flowering, but as I saw, it is not enough either.
Thanks for your comment, I find it helpful.

Fooling around with the light schedule is risky, it might stress the plant and make it go hermy. That been said, yes you can decrease the dark hours, though in veg only ( it can even be zero); in flower the plant needs at least 12 hours of uninterrupted darkness to bloom. As for changing the light on time, yes you can do it, as long as give the plant the dark time needed if you are in flower.
