Invert light/dark during a grow
Abacusstarted grow question 2 years ago
For veg period is better if I start with light on in the day, and off in the night, but for bloom period it will be too cold, can I invert light/dark during a grow? I will have light on in night and light off in the day.. does the plant have any problems if I do that?

If you want to do this with autoflowers, I'm pretty sure you'll be fine. Autos are phyto-neutral, which means they start flowering based on time alive and not the day getting longer or shorter, like photoperiod plants.
I'm not sure how well doing something like that would go with photoperiod plants, though.
Just my :text.02. I hope this helps. If I misunderstood your question, feel free to click on the airplane and message me. I'll help you get it sorted out.

Your plant will not know what time of day it is outdoors, it will only respond to light and dark, regardless of what time is on the clock.
It will be absolutely fine to to "invert" the time of light/dark to whichever time you choose.

I would grow when your hydro in the cheapest. My hydro rates are cheaper after 7 pm, so I grow from 7 PM to 1 PM while in veg and 7pm to 7am for when their in flower

what is correct light schedule for indoor germination and seedling, and then transplant outdoors?I plan to grow a photoperiod plant outdoors from spring to fall, but the germination and seedling stages will be done indoors. For the indoor part, can I use a setup with 18 hour light schedule? Or should it be 12 hours? I don't want to trigger flowering when I put it outside.Setup. Lighting

Contemplating putting 2 plants outside. I have 8 in a 3x3 with Mars hydro tsw2000. It’s pretty tight in there. What do you guys think? Is 8 too many for the size and light? Or should I just leave them as is? I think the the pots are 3 possibly 5 gallon.

How to grow Jack Herer and Power Plant strainsHey growmies, I’ve started two Jack Herer fems and a Power Plant fem on my 3-D’s diary. I’ve read JH can be a mofo and should be grown on a 12/12 light cycle from seed. I read the same for PP also. Is this true???? I’m trying to maximize yield. Thoughts please… 🤯Setup. Lighting
