Why are you responding to a 2 yr old thread to shit on a nuget?
cuz it looks like shit and i was reading the post, i gave mine 48 of darkness and just chopped her at 10/85/5Why are you responding to a 2 yr old thread to shit on a nuget?
So to shit on someone else hard work and brag about yours... Kk got it. Not very cool in my books man. People work hard on thier grows and I can't speak for the rest of the people here or the mods/owner but I'm here to gain knowledge and support others not rip em down to make myself look good. It's that kinda post that's going to deter people from making posts and being proud of what they have accomplished. IME bag appeal is bullshit and has nothing to do with quality. Some strains are airy, compact, various colors etc. Bag appeal while nice is last on my list of quality. I'm not trying to be a dick just point out that it really doesn't help the community to shit on ppls hard workcuz it looks like shit and i was reading the post, i gave mine 48 of darkness and just chopped her at 10/85/5

Well i can tell we grew up in different era's. I have no problem telling someone they may be doing something wrong if its going to benefit them. Not just shit on it to make myself look better. No point having a discussion over it because its pretty obvious where your mindset is. Pretty obvious every thread/post you make is some how what i call humble braggin and looking for approval. Then shit on someone else just to be able to post you pics to brag. Good daythe bud looks like shit what should i have said instead, hey great looking premature bud bro better luck next time
72 hrs of darkness here as well.This last page was pretty amusing. I like seeing trolls get owned. Also, Aqua Man, the generational comment is a perfect explanation of millennial bullshit. They want props for anything they do (their participation ribbons and all) and will insult and disagree all the way to their grave just to be the center of attention. Talk about hypocrisy. They bitch about being bullied then be a bully in the long run. The way I was raised, we got bullied, got bigger, and tougher, then stomped a mudhole in the bully's ass then continued on our way without any more problems with that bully. Back to the thread topic. I do 72 hours at the end before I cut like a lot of people do. The reason I do it is because it seems to stop the production of chlorophyll earlier than just chopping and hanging in the dark. I've noticed higher resin content than plants I don't do it with. My guess is that the plants fight response is telling it to get stickier to try to get pollen to reproduce before it's too late. Just nature being nature. I use the technique and find it to be quite useful for a smoother and more aromatic flower and smoke. I've also noticed the flavor profiles are more prevalent on the girls I finish that way. Everything GOOD genetic really does have it's own taste and odor when attention is focused on making that a top priority instead of weight. I'll take small grow over commercial cannabis any day.

Totally. To my knowledge 24 hrs is sufficient to do the job. Any more than that is unnecessary.Im curious if you tried only one day. Thats all it should take for the starches to leave the plant back to the roots. Thats why the flowers taste smoother.
The rest of the benefits are debatable in my opinion and research.
There is full info on this in ed rosenthals grow book.
I do about 30 hours just because of my lighting schedule, My understanding of the multi day thing is it builds up additional THC. I have read that THC is the plants natural sunscreen and the additional times just allows more to build in the plant, but I have never tried. Also seen JB in LA letting the plant just die in total darkness, but I have not seen them post about that lately on IG. I really do not see a reason to wait over 24 hours for the cut!Totally.

There are 2 things you're accomplishing, removing starches and building up volatile terpenes that usually gas off during lights on. Those Terps off gas quickly at temps over 20c so they usually deplete through the course of the day and replenish overnight, so a cold 24 hr dark period allows you to harvest with maximum terpene content intact.

The plant actually rebuilds the trichomes while in darkness, it does it every time it is in the dark. Does not more THC mean there is more THC per gram and thus a more potent product?In tests I have read it does not increase thc. Growers just say they look more frosty. But even if they do make more trichomes that does not automatically mean more potency. Its whats in them that counts.
And why would the plant make more sunscreen in the dark?
Too many myths...

Just like the entourage effect..I don't need proof.
It seems to work for me and I always have plants in flower, and so I shall continue:)
In any event, I get a better dry and cure.
That works Great as long as you keep the rubber down and the shinny side up!!I have seen a few people do this with great results.. I personally saw a noticeable difference in trichome coverage and they bulked up a bit more. I will be doing this next week on a room full of Sour Diesel.. can't wait!
