Like Magically Delicious?

I’ve read about doing a 24-48 hour darkness period at the end of flower to speed up the process. Wondering if anyone employs that method or if it’s hocus pocus?

I'm not a leading authority.... but I have heard it's hocus pocus, smoke and mirrors and horse hockey.

I think that's been mostly debunked. That said, I lower the light intensity for the last week or so to mimic less light in the fall in nature.

That’s what I thought.

I’m also lowering DLI last week by 1 hour and this week by another. I didn’t want to lower the intensity and only the daylight hours. Now at 10/14.

Personally I don't think the 2 days darkness helps but I do think a really hard drought at the end for several days would stress the plants enough to give it that final umph!!! I think it probably helps shorten the hang/dry time possibly as well. Sooo many choices!!!!

Yeah I was reading a little on that too and was thinking I might give that a go and stop feeding them until chop next weekend

Droughting makes them so much more if you follow the drought protocol Maritimer brought to light. I had to stop doing it because my family said they couldn't smoke my weed because it was too strong!

A few times I have had outside plants just get swarmed by pests. Even though the same strain was growing ten feet away. The plants that were infested definitely impacted the yield but on the flip side of that the actual quality of the final product was better. Really the only thing I can attribute it to is a possible stress reaction from the plant. So I'm thinking maybe drought probably works somewhat in the same fashion. Sooo many strains.... So little time!!

Well it looks like I am outside of that 7 week window but I’m going to do it anyways #nomáscomida

Day 166 - Vegged for 56 - Day 61 of flower - Day 71 of 12/12 or less light.

So close!!

Not a ton of change in the trichs but seeing a little more amber and less glass.

Haven’t watered since Friday, they don’t seem to notice yet. Maybe a little droopy if anything.

Numbers are right in range:

And here are some pictures of them today.

Looking sticky and thick in there!! Happy Tuesday!!

Day 167 - Vegged for 56 - Day 62 of flower - Day 72 of 12/12 or less light.

Looking a little frostier in there. Seeing a slight increase in amber and cloudy so still moving in the right direction

Oh this reminds me I need to order some new trimming scissors

With that said here are some pictures

 

[InTheShed]

Gonna be lots to trim and that doesn't even account for the hair on them!

 

[Ke0ncp]

I know…. This will be my first go with a bud wash! Need to get rid of all of that dog hair that has found its way into me tent!

 

[Ke0ncp]

Whoops…

I accidentally bought a 16” bud trimming bowl when I went to get scissors…. Dammit!

I went to buy a new 6" inline fan to handle the heat in the tent and damned if a controller 69pro wasn't added on... I wanted to get the Pro+ but that wasn't an option on the Zon where I had a bunch of points stored up.
