Does keeping my autoflower in the dark for 48hours at the end make any difference before harvest?

I have tested this a while back and my conclusion is that it works for some auto’s , not for all.

I tried without, with 24 hours of darkness, and with 24 hours of darkness AND a bag of ice right on the soil to melt down and cool.
I do the last one now. No proper evidence, but lots of local growers do it and honestly it made mine a lot heavier and stickier. Maybe its just water rention in the buds and it dries back out, god knows. But I do both now. Lol

It supposed to create more resin in the buds, I did it with my last auto, didn’t do much of anything.

Hey I just read the article on this on this website and there is no evidence for or against it. The only thing it said if you do, do this you will have to watch them closely for mold. Mold grows much faster in the dark.
Great job
Happy growing

The main stem of one of the Gorilla's had to be bent down. I have noticed that the buds seem abit small for the age and that her main stem is really bendy. Is it abit early to tell if they will get bigger with time or is it because of the stress?Week 1

The seedlings are getting so top heavy growing fast. The stem can no longer support all the weight of 2 of the seedlings, and I have had a fan on them 24/7. Is this normal? It’s not stretching FYI. I try not to give them a crutch to lean on so they grow stronger. Any Ideas?Week 1

Pollination question! Help please!I have two tents side by side. Both have inline fans installed with filters. 6 female plants, 1 male, how likely is it for pollen to wind up in with my girls if I keep the male in a separate grow tent? I want to selectively pollinate branches so I still have good bud too.
