What's your favorite/optimum tent size?
 
Good point and good morning . I took for granted it was an auto . Even with a photo wouldn't it eventually flower ?? regardless of the light .I've never grown photos in doors so I have no clue . :biggrin:

Nope, photo will sit there and grow, grow, grow...I killed one with root rot because I took too long to switch. And she was a monster! [emoji52] [emoji22]

It was my very first photo, and a very well learned lesson!

witchyhour is correct, here some info on photoperiod flower response to the changing light cycles.

Cannabis is a “short day/long night” plant, meaning it needs those conditions to bloom. The system cannabis uses to detect light changes is a group of receptors in the pigments of their leaves. There are 2 different receptors, each with a different task: Phytochrome Red and Phytochrome Far Red. They absorb light in different wavelengths and transmit that information to the plant.

Far-Red can be manipulated through the amount of light given to the plant. This receptor keeps the plant in the vegetative stage. Light in the far-red spectrum will signal this receptor to pass the chemical signal to veg. During times of light, both receptors are balanced in number, but in darkness, Far-Red receptors slowly change into Red receptors.

With longer dark periods, the number of Far-Red receptors reduces until there aren’t enough to counter the signal from the Red receptors, which tell the plant to flower.

Want to speed up your switch from veg to flower? Give plants an uninterrupted 24-36 hours of darkness before going to a 12-12 cycle. It will make more of the Far-Reds change into Reds, giving a more powerful signal to your plant that it is time to bloom. Normally, the transition can take a couple of weeks to be seen on your plants. By giving them a really long night, you can speed this up dramatically.

Photoperiod cannabis can not be triggered into flowering, until it reaches sexual maturity, roughly around 3 weeks.

I have grown photoperiod cannabis 12/12 from the start and it turned our nice, the shorter days in veg helps keep the plants smaller and this technique can be useful for SOG growers.

However if you take cutting from a mature photoperiod plant you can flower them (12/12) as soon as they are rooted, this can be especially helpful when growing long flowering sativas.

Morning stoners

I have a friend who has 2 tickets to the 2017 Super Bowl in Houston, TX, both box seats so good tickets.

He paid $2500 each ticket but he didn’t realize when he bought them last year that the Super Bowl was going to be on the same day as his wedding.

If you are interested he is looking for someone to take his place ………

it is at St. Patrick’s Church in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana at 3 pm. Her name is Ashley, she is 5’2” and about 125 lbs. She’s a good cook too. She will be the one in the white dress!
 
F it. Here it goes!!

This time was way better than the first time.

I actually got hit hard, and taste was not nearly as bad.

Taste is still dull and grassy compared to a pipe. But this is acceptable smoking.
How's the experience going so far? It looks like a great dry tank. Maybe the weed was grassy?

Newb question, i hav a digidaylight 315 cdm and ithink i got mixed up, should the light be 20cm away from canopy maximum or is that the minimum, like does the light have to be atleast 20cm away from tops or is it that the light cant be more than 20cm from tops lol
The closest you should hang them from the tops of your plants is 20cm.
The furthest away would be around 40cm.
