last week for whatever reason in the 6th week of bloom a guy told me he killed his lights for 36 hours and switched his bloom time from 8pm-8am to 8am - 8pm and also dropped his co2 from 1500 to 1000 ppm's.... can anyone tell me if this was a good idea becuase i seem to think not

he had to kill the lights due to the meter reading but i would assume if u kill the lights you would want to set tthem to the original time..... am i wrong?

maybe he thinks that this will stress the plant into finishing sooner with bigger buds, just like leaving them for 24 hr darkness before harvest. but it sounds a little extreme t me esp 36 hrs darkness.

i have no idea what he is thinking... i mean i understand he had to kill the lights but if u were to kill them dont u want to resume the regular lighting schedule prior to killing the lights.....

And why lower the co2?

Wait, I'm missing something here? Why'd he kill the lights? i got a meter. It gets read. I don't turn my lights off. Huh?

some people feel safer when they kill the lights on the day the meter is to be read as it does not spin as fast as normal.... however the meter reader didnt come on the schedule date he came on the following day ..... so buddy turned the room on exactly 36 hours later when i would think it would have been better if he waited 48 hours and resumed regualr light scedule as normal..... what do u think , just looking for some poples opinoions as we got into an arguement over this

Who cares how fast the wheel is spinning, they know exactly how much power you used and that's all that matters... Besides if he HAD to kill the lights why wouldn't he just put some regular florescents in there to keep it "daytime" they would draw nothing and not screw up your light cycle just wouldn't grow...
But as far as your argument I probably agree with you keeping the same light schedule although I have read about people doing that darkness period in order to switch your schedule, so really its stupid to do it anyway you do it cause its un natural lol

Next time they come to read the metre tell them you have a electric water heater (immersion heater), there is your excuse piss'd it. If you want to change a lighting schedual do it gradually, a lot of people extend the dark by a couple of hours to speed up the end production but you lose bud size.
