Hi, I have a question .. i found something interesting in the internet about shortening flowering stage by changing light schedule from 12/12 to 10/10. Is that makes sense ?

Does not make sense as the math don't add up. There is 24 hours per day. What happened to the extra 4 hours?

One main cola or multi nodes?
On a 12/12 from seed would you remove all side shoots to allow for one fat chunky main cola or just let her do her thing? First time using this method. Advice would be appreciated.. thank you 👌🌱

Sexing Seeds
What is the best way to identify seed sex? Flower and switch back to veg or take a cutting from each and flower those? I ultimately want to end up with a Mother from the seeds.

The FLIP
Getting ready for the good ol’e flip. What do most do you guys do for the light schedule? Is it better say (on/off) 12am/12pm, or 6am/6pm. Worried about daytime activities in that room. My schedule will accommodate just about anything, so what are you thoughts?

Increasing potential yield in the trans. flower stretch?
Hello beautiful GD community! I had a question regarding 'milking' my yield. I've got a decent spread going on all of my girls. However, I'm a little worried about the empty space in the tent. Any recommended training techniques to increase yield? Not too invasive; they're autos.

We're Brand New! All of these have been, (we think) Veg. for at least 4 weeks; the two big girls certainly longer. We're thinking about 12/12 a week from today. Any thoughts, comments, input would be welcomed!

Erratic light cycles for the first week
Any experience with keeping a seedling in 12/12 to begin with, then switching over to 18/6 after the first week? Because I did that this time for tech reasons, and I do wonder if I produced a hermie. My own notion is that it will just set me a week back perhaps. Anyone know tho?

First grow tips and strains pls?
Looking at starting my first grow, I have a 120x120x200cm tent, and a 1000w LED light. What auto strains would you recommend for a complete beginner? Any tips in general would be great too. I'm hoping to have 8 plants, but generally quality is more important to me than quantity.
