oes Lighting schedule affect how fast Af plants mature?
For example you grew you plants 18/6 all the way through. And someone else grew the same strain under the same conditions but had there lighting schedule 20/4. would the person running 20/4 plants mature faster?
I wanna know this cause to me, the whole point of growing auto flowers is they are fast. after my plants show sex and I transplant them, I try to harvest them 40 days after they have been transplanted. all together about 65 days germinating. I recently switched my lighting schedule to 22/2 to try and make them finish quicker. Do you think this will work?
That's funny cause my Auto blueberry just showed amber trichs at day 57 from germination. So yea it does make a difference. I have trialed and error with 16/8 18/6 20/4 and now 22/2. Have you done any trial and erroring with light schedules??? And the only difference I see is that they mature quicker. WHen I was on 18/6 my trichs turned amber around day 65-70. Fuck that. The whole point of growing Af is because there fast. TIME IS MONEY. You're electricity bill will rise a little more but the investment is worth the return. If I can harvest 10 days sooner it'll give me more crops for the year.
Hitman64 u have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. More males and hermies??? I run my seedling 24/0 and get about 60% female ratio. Everything you said is retarded. And anyone who puts their AF plant under 12/12 is an idiot. I've been growing these for 3 years NON STOP. And stunting has to do with transplanting. They key to making your plant not stunt and become a little 10 inch single cola is transplanting right when they show sex. If you wait too long to transplant your sexed female I guarantee you it will stunt. I've been on 22/2 for the last few month and have had no problems. and I run full 1500ppms of Co2 as well. I wanna know how many crops you've had under your belt and what you're setup is Hitman
If you already knew all the fn answers stop asking questions and go write a book. Be sure to take a chapter and devote it to your 1500 ppm co2 system. For all you have invested in trying to grow you maybe ought to sell off part of that and invest in crocheting or something. I hear there's a big demand for products made by the mentally handicapped. You could retire early. Now...I said extended hours create more makes and hermies. I run 17.5/6.5 with a mechanical timer. I net 87.7% females and don't use feminized seeds. You run your 20+ hour schedule and you said you get 60% females. I hope you're using regular seeds as well. Anyhoo...I'm right. Ta fucking da.
You get amber trichs in 57 days. Good for you. I usually get amber trichs in 60-65 days. My setup is actually quite a bit bigger than yours if you include the outdoor grow. I use all the co2 mother nature provides when I do that. Outdoors this year sucked ass I only ended up with 100 lbs but I had to cut early because of the C130s. They make me a bit nervous at times. Indoors you're about right. I just started indoors and have yet to use the full system. But I have roughly 5kW of lights. Just don't have the room right now but I do have 33 finishing prior to Turkey day and a replacement for each.
Yes I've done trial and error with schedules. That was in the last post. You got my email I'm sure so now you can see why some may run 12/12 or 14/10. I think I've addressed about everything now. With the exception of saying that irregardless of whether you forgot to take your medication or not the majority of is here so know what were doing and if you feel we don't then by all means pull a gypsy and start your own forum. ..that way you'll always be right and have the last word. Maul I know its beyond him to so ill apologize for him. You're about as knowledgeable as they come as far as scientifics go.
