Yo yo OG crew!
I’ve tried searching around the site, but haven’t found any concrete answers. People seem to be using 13 hours on, 11 hours off to transition plants into flowering. People also seem to be using this timing when producing seeds. But would the added light hour a day increase flowering time and end weight?
70 days x 1 extra hour per day = 70 light hours
10 extra days to flower x 13 hours a day = 130 light hours
12 hours light x 70 days = 840 light hours standard flowering time
13 hours light x 80 days = 1040 light hours extended flower
I’ve always done 11 on 13 off.
Now over at the spot, they broke that 13 up.
If you know Tomba, he could probably give ya some insight.
I believe I saw him at the farm or riu
I’d bet 11/13 is most helpful with the equatorial stuff…and maybe use it for flipping & jump to 12/12 in small increments…?
Strains vary so much in triggering times it seems. As far as my location goes, flowering has begun outdoors by 12/12 with most finishing in 11/13ish conditions.
Yeah there ain’t much difference between 11/13 or 12/12.
We ran a test over at the other spot and found out no diff.
We were messing with the gaslight way also.
There aint no hard n fast rules. Its a weed. Plant health rules all. This spirit grows in every part of the world n flowers n makes seeds no prob in all of em. 24hrs all the way down to 6hrs of light a day. Intensity - spectrum - angle - duration all matter n it’s why ppl r doin fine w anythin under 14hrs a day to < 6hrs a day. More im-por-tant-eh is yer environs once ye get b-low 14hrs.
