Have to harvest early, would 48 hours of darkness help at all?

Like my title says, would a prolonged period of darkness help my buds out at all?

The plant which is bagseed, will be at day 59 on Sunday, I have been checking the trichs but It seems to still be clear.
I am not happy about that by the way, So basically will giving the plant full 12/12 for the remainder of its days be better, or 2-3 days of darkness?

Thanks, and it is my first post.

just edited that haha

i think you should let it bloom out 14 more days or so

 

[gshof945]

yeah I think so too, it started all new pistols when I started flushing with molasses

 

[gshof945]

But since I dont have 14 days, I have 4 before I leave for a long time, do you suggest keeping it on a 12/12 schedule for the remaining days?

 

[chitownsmoking]

yeah i do.....

 

[gshof945]

ok thanks for your opinion,

 

[chitownsmoking]

damn that sucks u have to harvest early. you got to this point

 

[gshof945]

I knew going in I wouldnt have more then 9 weeks for flowering, and now today is 8 weeks, so by Sunday it will be 8 and half weeks so I will have to accept what it is.

 

[SDgoonie]

Better than earlier than 8 weeks! Looks good tho.

it's still get you nice and high... I have tried this "3days of darkness" that everyone is hyping and to be honest I have not seen any noticable difference

 

[TeaTreeOil]

I suggest longer darkness, 10/14 or 12/14, this'll make the plant mature quicker.

try and pinch the stalk or stress the hell out of it so u can get more resin and potency out of it before u take it out

 

[gshof945]

Does stressing the stalk actually aid with resin?
