I read about in the grow faq. Do people commonly practice manipulating the photoperiod for 1 to 2 weeks during flowering. If so how do you when to switch to 21/12.... Anyone messed with this before?
Depends on what you want your plant to do ie; veg or flower. In flower you can switch the hours to 14/10 to speed up ripening of the flowers or in veg you can leave them on for 24/0 for veg or if it's your mother. All depends on what you want your plant to do.

Thats interesting rkm... I more curious about adding more hours of light... I dont see the benefit of subtracting light... P.S. Where you high when you posted that?
I appreciate you guys replyin' but would you please read the GROWFAQ... Its about adding more light when in full bloom... From what i take from it you would start adding the extra light around week 6.... The idea was to get more growth during daylight hours putting off harvest up to a week.... The photoperiord would be 21:36/12.... Peace
Read the article before posting.. Hopefully someone who has done this will reply..

It says 40% for only 4 extra days... Pretty dope... I have to try it.. If you think about it at or at least from what i know it takes a certain amount a 12 hour dark periods for a plant to be ready for harvest.. I would guess thats predetermined by genetics, that being said why not give the plant some extra hours of light to fatten up.. I really think there something to this theory. I wish i was more educated. When i get to week six im gonna do 21:36/12 and see what happens.. I already have a hermie what harm could it do..
I know that if you switch to 14/10 during flowering, you are supposed to have a greater yield, but flowering takes longer and buds are supposed to be more leafy. If you decide to try that 21/12 schedule or whatever it is, be sure to let us know how it turns out. I would be really interested to hear. Where the hell do they sell timers that would work for a schedule like that anyway?
