Breeders want to sell seeds. When they say 8 weeks, that is 8 weeks from the first buds starting to form {if they are pretty honest} You have to take into account the time it takes the plant to trigger from veg to flower mode. Later on when you have a few grows under your belt, you will learn the times for each strain. Most of the pros do a room of clones from the same plant so the flower times and stretch is the same across the room. I've never grown indoors, but from what I hear, managing your canopy height is a PITA when you have several strains.

On down the road if you could get a veg and a flower space, you can keep a mother in veg and take clones off her. That way you can more effectively use your time and electricity. You time it so your clones are ready to go into flower when the plants in there are ready to be chopped. Since it is always at least 8 weeks for flower, you can veg your clones a little longer to get more size to them.

Also light is the main factor in yield. 4, 6 or 8 plants could make just as much weight as your 22 with the same light. 8 would be the max most folks would try to flower in a 4 X 8 space. That gives you a 2 X 2 space for each plant, or 4 sq ft.

So your saying it cAn take up to 12 weeks?
Last week I harvested some Northern lights. breeder times was approx 55 days, she went 80 days. This week ill be harvesting a Strawberry amnesia, breeder time of approx. 70 days, she will go close to 100 days.
I'm in soil and under a 600w HID. Breeder times are for hydro, 1000w and sealed room I believe (perfect conditions), unless otherwise stated.

Wow..

What about doing 36 hours of dark time to trigger flower faster!??
that will shock them more than anything. just flip to 12/12 lol i took pics of mine today after watering, theyre still growing bugger and bigger but are being underwatered and showing signs of that lol not at my house so i cant just water whenever id like i have to drive 30 mins and bring my water each time i go out there my buddy who watches them literally just checks them once a day so theyre not getting the best care at this time. since ive moved them out there theyve went downhill and about died multiple times now but theyre still kickin it haha gotta roll with the punches i guess when youre not in the most "legal" spot lol.the room also gets too hot but theyll be alright theyll finish up just fine. when i upload my pics to the computer ill post them here so you can see them how they started when i flipped how they looked when they were fucked up and recovery

Yea i dont think i could just move both of my tents,

Where im growing, its roughly 15 mins from my house and some days i get tired but i still have been going there every night.

Because this one is in veg and ther in flower,

So i water them one day apart.









If your aiming for good finished product you cant speed up nature it is what it is. Why not find a new place sooner and move shop over there?

Has anyone tried 24-36 dark time?

Everywhere i looked, it saying that it will induce flowering faster.
Cousin Wayne knew plants flowered in the fall. He figured it was from the cold weather. So he would tote 2 liter bottles of ice out to his plants every morning.

My point is there are a lot of folks doing crazy ass shit to their plants, and if they pull through and flower, they are sure that is the reason. Just change your light hours to 12/12 and wait it out.
