@ProfDoty, not 100% on the science, or even sure if it works for that matter. I’ve talked to several growers with more experience then me. Some swear by it saying it helps ripen the buds at the end of the flower cycle. Simulating a first frost or cold weather at the end of the plants life in the natural world. This is my first time experimenting with this method but so far I can say I’m pretty impressed. The girls seem to love it, changing colors in the leaves very fast, not only purple, but yellows, oranges, and even some hints of reds. Doesn’t seem to affect the colors of the buds like cold temperatures do, but simply help give them one last push to help finish beautifully. Followed by 24-48 hours of pure darkness and these old timers swear by it.
