My 8hr flowering experiment

I'm to giving of a person and usually give away too much.
Haven't needed help in a lil while now tho.
I actually like trimming and find it relaxing. Throw a hockey game on and I can sit for hours and I'm the only person that trims up to my expectations.
I used to work trimming full time, 12 hour days. Sucked ass. Money was good and I could smoke all day but it just got tedious. I out source my help now. My mom and brother are my first choice, then I will call friends. You got some nice beans there. popping all at once?

I'm asking about the 8 hour flowering instead of 12 hour, if it made any noticeable difference.. :rolleyes:
Yes
I noticed that my light is only on for 8 hours instead of 12
Using glr for veg then 8/16 the plants transition to flower is immediate. So is trichome production.
After dialling everything in and attempting a much larger plant count I'm hopeful that I will harvest 90% of a typical 18/6 12/12 grow using 35% less energy

I'm running 6 on and 2 off three times a day in my prebloom veg and they sure seem to like it.
Thats awesome
I'm not surprised at all.
I think the first thing I've learnt is that there's still so much to learn and try.
I bet that schedule would sure help a lot of people dealing with heat issues. Plus it would make the narcs at the power company go wtf

Fortunately I live in Colorado and the local power company has made it clear they aren't interested in being an unpaid arm of law enforcement.

I have a COB LED rack that acts like it's over powered. If I had a place to install it by itself I'd use that high intensity to try an 8/16 bloom cycle. I suspect the combination would produce some very interesting results.

I suspect you would be correct.
Interesting for sure
I haven't been lying or exaggerating anything sir. I gain nothing no matter
How another person chooses to grow.
