Update they have gone four light cycles with the mh and the results have been interesting. First let me tell you what I have going in this room and the results from both. I have a equal amount of plants from 2 different mothers and the strain is ss ak47 today will be day 72. One pheno group is from a mother I have already flowered and know a little about. I took the mother down at 69 days. I have not noticed any increase in trichs but i will say the smell of the plant is changing. This pheno is my cat piss pheno. Smells like walking into an old house whose owner has a few cats. After 4 days the smell of this plant is starting to change to more of a sweet, fruity, skunky smell with undertones of the cat piss.
Pheno number two is a heavy heavy sativa ak47 looks totally different, in flower, from anything I have grown before. I do not think it is going to ready until 90-100 days. This plant did not even throw pistols until day 35. This one is the plant I chose as my potential mother so I have not flowered. (Thank god I have kept all the phenos around, all of which are completely different but great, even this plant is going to special in its own way). Before I put this light over them these plants trich development was just beginning and there was very little smell from these plants. Since I switched the light trich development has exploded and the plants have become much much more fragrant. Bud development also seems to be increasing and speeding up. Now, could these changes be from the normal development of a plant that is just starting take off in flower, maybe, but the increase in smell, at the very least, I contribute to the light. Smells like sweet candy I cant get enough. Now I have a decision to make once I cut the first ones down, do I put the new plants under the mh with these or switch back to hps for a while.
