Hey all, I have had 4 succesful harvests and feel I have my game down but.... I am growing MK Ultra and was recently reading tips from Adam at THSeeds and he suggests 36 hours darkness before switching to flower.... could this in anyway stress my babies? He says the darkness will save a week or so because the plant will go straight into flowering mode rather than taking a week to aclimate to the change.... Any thoughts on this???? Thanks peace

It tells the plant that its time to flower.

Some say it helps and some say it does not. Its to send a signal to the plant to flower.

I tryed it a couple of times and it didn't seem to help. If your plant is mature enough to flower it shouldn't take a long time to switch. When I put my clones under 12/12(no dark period before) they are budding in about 6-7 days(you'll see calxys forming all over the place). This happens everytime too. I rarly get a clone that takes longer then this to start flowering. This is all because my mother is mature enough to start flowering. My mother plant is almost 6 months old.

Hey guys... well, I tried the darkness for 36 hours and gave small ammount of flowering nutes and had the HPS on for a day when i realized i should have let them veg a bit bigger... so I put the MH back in and am gonna let them veg for another week or so so they can get a bit bigger... will that have any adverse effects on them? I dont think it will but then again i have never switched to flower and then switched back to veg.... I get worried
