Thanks! I appreciate your opinion!! How long would you suggest leaving the 730nm diodes on? I'd love to try the 11/13, or even 10/14...but I run a perpetual harvest, so this makes it counter-productive. The pontoon does not give you separate control over the 730 diodes, I don't know if there may be a way around this, but I'm going to be thinking about it.
What would be the optimum way to use them, and burn for how long? Thanks in advance!! Best, -Max
EDIT - Another Question...Since I just turned the photo period back to 12/12 around 2 weeks ago, do you think maybe I just haven't given it enough time yet to see the difference? Maybe I just need to sit back and see what differences that makes. I wonder how long it will take to see the full effects of changing to 12/12? Any thoughts there? Thanks again!!
so, if I run a couple of these "lights" on some outdoor girls a little at sunset and a little at sunrise in june or july then the crop flips and stays flipped till harvest?It is certainly beneficial.
It depends upon your latitude as to when it will work best, Most certainly when your local night reaches 10 hours in length the flower initiator will trigger the phytochrome to change state rapidly and make the plant respond as if the night is 12 hours in length ( pretty critical for largely sativa strains). As you know some specie will begin to flower with a shorter night, if one knows when, the date, they would normally begin to flower for that unique location, one can estimate an earlier date with a night that is two hours longer and begin initiation at that date.so, if I run a couple of these "lights" on some outdoor girls a little at sunset and a little at sunrise in june or july then the crop flips and stays flipped till harvest?
with no covering?
and if so for how many days do I run these "lights"?
@growlights , I watched a few of your videos but there isn't a lot of details included so I ask here.
Thanks in advance!
I have provided free lamps for testing in the past, it seems without a bit of an investment the ball gets dropped. I have sold them at wholesale to some growers who did complete their projects, I am wiling to do that, in that is tough to get that kind of unbiased reporting.thanks for the reply.
I am in norcal, sierra foothills. I know all my strains well and when they naturally flower so that is no problem, I would need one light per plant on the main gardens, but only a few for the dep structures I think.
If you want any online testers I would do it, but I may end up buying some of your lights once I see more details and proof of function.
I look forward to more videos.
I seldom leave home as well. I will post more info as the current project develops. Perhaps I can supply one for your testing.Well, I do what I say I will do but yeah, we will talk more soon I am sure.
Sonoma is only a few hours away, but getting me to leave home is VERY hard to do. But I am very interested in this process and think it is worth pursuing.
Infrared is 800 to 900 nm plus.. Not much use to the plants.
The indoor flowering schedule (after flowers set in) would look something like this.
12hr HPS.
2hr Red/Far Red No BLUE light.
1/2 hr to 45 mins of (730 nm only) for critical darkness manipulation.
Thats a 14.5/10 indoor flowering schedule for success. Plants will think they are running on approx a 11.5/12.5 flowering schedule..
Hope that helps.
lets see the 14/10 from day 1 results you speak of..
Shit, you would be the first to get cannabis to flower from day 1 with that schedule..
