motaman311answered grow question 7y ago
Did it once and didn't notice any difference but I only left it in the dark for 24 hours. Ive seen many growers state you need at least 36 hours of darkness to stress the plant to see the increase in resin production. Harvesting right before lights on has the highest terpene levels. If you do make sure your humidity doesn't get extremely high, dont want mold at the end! Good luck!๐

Hi! you mean 48h darkness before harvest.. I tried and yes maybe there are little more trichomes after that dark time. Also read somewhere that harvest itself should be done before light switches on so that you harvest at dark. Should improve taste.. makes sense..
Hope this helps out! Happy growing!

I havenโt harvest at night time but this years crop will be! The alarm will be set for 4 am ouch ahah Iโve read somewhere, I tried looking for the link but canโt seem to find it now. But they say it improves THC and taste. Iโm not sure about the thc but the taste and the smell makes sense. They say at night time the plant release co2, carbon, and surgars which would enhance flavour taste and aroma. But itโs worth a try right? Nothing to lose other then a shit load of coffee ahaha

When to flush and harvest and should I defoliate again?When to flush and harvest? I think I am close but my gut tells me to keep it on the current nutrients and feeding schedule for another week or 2 and then flush but also don't want to leave it too long.. My stash is all but empty. Also, should I defoliate again?

Can anyone tell me how many weeks left I might have until harvest? I am planning a holiday and need a rough date to work with! I am happy to harvest a little on the early side when trichomes are all cloudy. If a few people could put their best guess I can average them, thanks! ๐Week 8

I just realized this freebie seed is feminized and not autoflower like the ones I purchased. I didnt use any growing methods to not stress out the plant. My question is should I start to low stress training or topping? Im going to 12/12 light cycle tonight.Week 5

If anyone actually looks at the temp/humidity monitor in my photos, you will see it goes from 40%s during lights on, to mid 50%s during lights off. Do I need to invest in a dehumidifier sooner rather than later, or will mid 50s during lights off not pose huge mold risks in flowerWeek 11

So, the top half of my plant is about a week from harvest. The bottom half has started to look nicer as I've lost some of the highest fan leaves.
Is it possible to cut off just the top half of the plant and let the lower portions continue to grow? Or is the shock too much?Week 16

I need a little help from an "old rabbit"..... nothing wild.7/8 day of bloom. I would like to know when to defoliate in bloom? Not at all at first? 2nd week? Every week? It gets very tight all around. So I would like to remove everything from the bottom that doesn't get light. Thanks in advance.
