Darkperiod
SirSmokeALot333started grow question 4 years ago
Hey all just wanted to ask if the 48h darkperiod make a difference for you or not. I mean I did it to all my lady's till now, but I saw a video on that and it was tested and the weed lost 20-30% of the terpenes for 1% thc +
Cause I gonna harvest tomorrow or not? 🤔

There's no evidence that it helps one way or the other. It's the same idea as showing the roots with ice water. It's all just theory and any supporting evidence is anecdotal.
I think it's likely that different strains respond differently so sometimes it may help, sometimes it may hurt, and sometimes it may make no difference at all.

The plants don't get darkness when grown outside. From what I've read, a period of dryness can force her to put all energy into the flowers. Can also turn them hermie if done too early. But I don't have much experience in that myself. I've never used darkening as believe its not natural. Like Mrs_larimar said, an urban legend, the same as flushing...

Thank you mate, you got always a good answer 💪🏼
It just the whole videos on YouTube and on the growersites all are swearing on this method, and then u got the other site who sayin its bullshit. I gonna harvest without a darkperiod this time. I mean how can I proof this with 1 plant, you can just send some probes to the lab, but where I live it's not legal 🤣.

Did we start everything okay?I'm OCD #af and worry about EVERYTHING.
Is there anything we can be doing better? Light distance, germination tactics, water amounts with coco? Did we use too big of a cloth pot (I've been told 7-gallon is good, and I feel that what we have in a 10-gallon pot).Week 1

Temp controlany suggestions keeping it cool? I've already got 3 fans going and my bedroom AC going as well. I keep the closet doors open except at night and during "dark time." I may need to get some blackout curtains for my windows and keep it partly open at night just to keep it cool?Week 9

Ready for flushing or can I feed until the last day?This lady is at day 65 (70 from seed), and since I have a very tight schedule due to upcoming holidays, I'm wondering if she's ready to start flushing (say 12 days of flushing, 2 days of dark, and harvest at day 80)? Also, I'm using Biobizz nutes: do they even need to be flushed?

Almost ready?Hi guys,
Just started week 8 and buds are growing day by day but I have really low expectations in terms of quantity.
As you can see I failed applying LST + some yellow leaves, gave them chelated iron .
Please share your thoughts and tell me how long I must wait for the harvest.

Not enough water for this beast in an airpot.My nlxbb is huge and in a small airpot. I've watered 2 litres everyday the last 3 days. It seems when I wake up the pot is always light no matter how much water I give her. Should I be watering until I see water pouring out the bottom? I usually separate watering by a Cpl hoursWeek 6

GHE-nutes for next grow, adviceI’m considering trying GHE-nutrients (flora) for my next grow. What’s your guys experiences with it? Positives and negatives?

And which ones would you recommend for a full delicious grow?
