Diminishing Flower light schedule....

[caveman4.20]

Hello farmers! I'm starting this thread where Gas Lantern Technique ends because it pertains to veg only....so today is day one of flowering after 36 hrs of pitch black... First month Twelve on twelve off week five eleven on thirteen off then week six 10 on 14 off.....then to the finish line!

Interested to see how this goes.

Feel free to give any input fellas and thanks for checking out the experiment to bad I don't have space and paperwork for a control group .

Yo fishwhistle cool of you to stop by when I first joined the farm I read plenty of your post you know what's up.
Entropy I appreciate your interest peace.

All but about eight plants will be culled I am only keeping the eight phenos that respond the best to this diminishing light schedule. And that is a 600 w lumatek with the temp @ 72 most are 3 gal bucket some fives. I'm looking for vigorous flower onset, there are four plants already showing sex.

If indeed there are vigorous pleasing results ill make a few beans which will be specifically for future interrupted and diminishing light schedule grows. I doubt I take any clones and make mothers depends on how soon phenos show there colors... If I see something I like ill root a branch from the inner bottom so I may not clean up all the sucker branches.

Cool experiment. What are you hoping to achieve by doing this (forgive me if you've explained it elsewhere)?

 

[caveman4.20]

It's all good feel free, ask whatever you'd like....I am trying to trigger the plants to express hidden traits I'm not worried about hermaphrodites il just Cullem, the diminishing light schedule I'm hoping my hypothesis is better yet that the plant will go threw its natural course of life and die leaving behind a very complex cannabinoid profile. Max yield is not my ambition but I will pay attention to what a six Hundy yields. Like I said this is a seed run and I will finish eight under this light.

I will also raise the light the last week and half or so to try to preserve the oils state.

You know I think this is all an extension of LST...or low stress approach?

 

[caveman4.20]

Day three everyrhing appears.normal almost every plant is showing sex my ratio is femal heavy with about half showing potential hermaphrodism a lil quick to tell.

 

[caveman4.20]

A lil update.

 

[caveman4.20]

Not so sure anything is happenning any different seem like im right on schedule and this is from the gas lantern veg schedule beggining in holloween. Also with 36 hrs blackout and idk i think this experiment is worth a controll group because im right on schedule with other grows and they used 18 hrs plus for veg hmmm i even think a few of my phenos kept up with some wellbgrown hydro grows so i wonder how well hydro responds to that veg oops i thoughtbthisbwasbthebgass lantern scedule thread.

 

[caveman4.20]

Hopefully all females in here but still have an eye out for males and hermies.

 

[caveman4.20]

I really dont think that the 36 hrs blackout before flowering is much different then going straight to twelve twelve... any opinions please share...

Thats the momma
Right here...

Heres the #1 poppa

Im glad i decided to breed this round because these new light schedules are working out for me with the right phenos which are now revealing themselves im going to save time money and we will see if i get some unique characteristics in the flowering!
