Incidentally, has anyone experimented with 14 on, 10 off for a full flower?
I'm curious because the science behind it seems logical, but that means squat with marijuana (as far as I can tell from reading online!)
alreeet steve! welcome

180 is extortion man seriously i've not heard it that price outside of London:shock:

congrats on getting yourself into the best hobby/passtime/profession (delete as appropriate) haha im really interested in your 14/10 light schedule idea i've read into this a little n as the plants do most of their growing through the dark period, increasing it should increas overall production right! i was thinking of getting a digital timer and going 14/12 which would up a 9 week strain to a 9 week n 5 day finish, but should increase your yeild by a good chunk ?! ive yet to find anyone thats tried it as most timers are only 24hr. but the theory is sound as the plant still thinks its end of summer as its only getting 12 hours light right.

there was a thread bout it somewhere ill see if i can dig it up.

happy growing:joint:

Stuff it, the buggers are now on 14/10.

I have 2 x White Rhino seeds at 4 weeks veg in.

2 x unknown seeds from 'soapbar'?

1 x supposedly White Rhino but it sure as hell isn't like ANY photo's!

I also have 1 x Blueberry in veg for cloning, and a cutting from one of the unknowns.

Using Canna substrate, 250w Dual Light in a 1m x 1m x 2m area.

This is my first grow and I've just chopped a Top 44 (donated) and am drying now.

I'm boring myself now, so I'm gonna go...:joint:

Mark your blueberry, ive done them twice, good smoke yes indeed the crowd cried out for ''more'' BUT out of 10 seeds female, i had 8 results, 2 turned male, leaving me 6, and 2 of them turned hermi at the very end, nobody complained but just to let you know to mark it out.

its always been and always will be who you know, when you find a good man doing good shit you keep him close, ive delt with the same 2 guys for best part of 10 years, they get theirs, i get mine, and the shop is closed till next time, would not have it any other way. keep it tight, i never spread the trust, no point, i have 2 that i trust 100%.
