No, it is not botanically possible. It is pure BS/Bro Science.

Is it ok if I give less than 12 hrs of light during flower due to power cuts
Hey growers its week 6 and I have switched to flowering mode. It's rainy season here , and we are having some power cuts. I have set the timer for 12-12 , but due to cuts some days chances of receiving like 2-3 hours less. Will it be an issue if I give them less than 12 hrs?

Taking a vote, life finds a way! To snip or not to snip.
Just spotted this little branch peaking through the hydroton in late flower which I thought was pretty impressive. She even has little triches forming on her. Taking votes on weather to snip her or let her grow!

Humidity
dehumidifier not working. My question is what happens if I keep growing without it. With humidity in the 60s. Will it hurt my yield? Will I just be more susceptible to bud rot, mildew and other fungi? Or will it affect actual quality? (Aroma/potency) Thanx

Should I transplant these autos?
I was told not to transplant autos, but would like a second opinion. They haven't started budding yet and are already root bound in Solo cups at 27 days. I was also told it was too late to bend over since it's too woody and that it would cause too much stress to do anything.

Joining Photo Contest mid-grow?
It gives a warning before you enter: "Once you joined a contest you will not be able to edit or remove content form your diary." Does this mean I won't be able to continue updating my journal if I enter? I have a few more weeks of flower left. Also, do they ship to NYC? Thanks

Flushing Time
Hi all, I was thinking about when should I start to flushing. It looks like they have 2 more weeks to flush and harvest. I guess there will be 3 more watering day if i do it in every 4 days for the one of them. Because another one was started to growing 2 weeks later.
