Flip light schedule
Lovemabudstarted grow question a year ago
1 week into flowering and I need to change lighting schedule, complete reversal from night/day due to cold night tempswhen lights are on. Only way to achieve would be to have 24 hours of dark. There maybe an impact but warmer day temps I'm sure will benefit in the end. Thoughts

Unless it is an autoflower, absolutely do not do 24 hours of light with a photoperiod in flower phase... you will have a very high risk of causing a revege or some sort of repercussion for causing a major issue with the hormones inside the plant...
uninterrupted darkness is what causes / controls flower phase. do not fuck with the dark period of a photoperiod in bloom phase. no ifs, ands or buts and not a debate whatsover. based known science and knowledge that exists in the world...
One 12-hour light cycle lost is small potatoes, if necessary.

If its a must, I'd do it the opposite way round and leave the light on for 24hr.

Which strategy with auxiliary grow Leds ? 3x20w Leds -Thanks !Helps maturing but I wonder if buds are bigger. I used to put 3 extra lights 20 cm below canopy, leave many large leaves at the top and lollypop 30%. 30% is definitely not enough even with those 20w LEDS (50% is probably better). How do you use extra LEDS ? Where do you put them?

Diferencia en el color verde de las hojasEstas plantas automáticas están recibiendo la misma alimentación, agua, etc y están en el mismo tipo de sustrato. Pero unas (las más oscuras) reciben luz artificial adicional (Neón CFL) para llegar a tener 17h de luz al día. ¿Es normal la diferencia? ¿Cuál se ve mejor?
