Sun tan effect?
Badassxwarstarted grow question 4 years ago
Am starting flower and was wondering how to do the sun tan effect without burning to bring out color. Should I drop my flowering light down from 18in to 14 in the last hour of the day then back up to 18 after rest the last two weeks of flower? Or is my guess completely off?

Sun tan effect, skip that. Sounds like shit. Buy few UV bulbs and whip some ultra violet radiation for plants now and then. Even easier is to grow right, do the basics and a lot of trichome rich, potent buds will he produced that way 👍

Are you talking about when the plant start to fade to autumn/fall colors? If so that’s more towards the end of harvest when your in flush causing the plant to use up any left over nutrients. You definitely can lower the temp to get a coloring going on but just make sure you don’t drop to low slowing your growth. But to be honest I’m really confused with the sun tan effect 🤔

Hi there!
I have never heard about this sun tan effect. What is the purpose of that? I think that if you give right amount of light during the day, you should not need to adjust the height every day. I'm not sure if you just want something pure cosmetics then it might be different story.
Colder temps and especially colder nights brings out the purple colors btw.

How to reduce yield? (without reducing quality)Can I prune down to 3 or 4 colas? When? Or better to let it grow normally and compost the extra? I've found it too easy to grow way more than I can use. Especially when I experiment with different varieties. I'm also thinking it might be easier to spot pests etc. with less colas?Buds. Other

Pre-harvest CareMy question is related to harvest techniques. I have seen where several diaries talk about water restrictions the last 1-2 days prior to harvest and also about placing the plant(s) in the dark for 4-7 days prior to harvest. I would like to hear from the master growers on it. TYBuds. Other

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Small bud and faint smellHi everyone!
I am concerned that my buds have a very faint odor (you have to almost touch the plant with your nose to smell it well).
Could it be because I have a powerful fan? Or will the herb take on an odor over time or after drying?

Suintement / gouttelettesJ'aimerais recueillir vos avis concernant le suintement observé sur mon plant de cannabis, qui a été placé dans l'obscurité totale au cours des dernières heures. Une substance sucrée semble s'écouler sous forme de petites gouttelettes. Dois je n'inquiéter pour le séchage ?
