Ive been reading about the 24-72 hours of complete darkness before harvest. There have been mixed results. What do you guys think about it?

I've just said so much different shit about it haha. Some people swear it's the only way to get the best pot, others say it's bullshit and kills the plant/stresses her out. I'm just trying to get some different opinions haha.

I'm sorry for posting about this topic, I just can't seem to find any good information about it. I searched a few other forums and actually found 2 high up forum members aurging about it. There is just too much controversy over it.

I tried it and confirmed its a myth. There was less frost, it's actually counter intuitive think about, your starving your plants of light how's that going to you give you more frost.

they say it helps bc your plants uses light to bud so u put them in the dark for days and they use up all that light/power in to making the buds fatter befor u cut

don't forget to also hang them upside down after chop and pour hot water down the plant to push all the thc into the buds.

Haha advice noted no ice water or hot water. The darkness intrigues me as BOG does it and I'm growing sour bubble at the moment...
