How important is it to give your plants 36 hours of dark, before the start of the flower cycle?
Thank you for your knowledge in advance.

I don’t no of anyone doing that, 36 hours of dark b4 chop some people do but can’t see the bonus of extra dark time before flower unless u looking for a little extra stretch maybe
Nah I've never done and see no benefit,I've stepped down hours and I've done just a straight switch of hours and not seen much difference there either,and also I flower 11on 13 off.

i was doing the gas lantern too,really didnt see any over all difrence,i got down to 9 hrs on some sativa,my problem with it is you need 4 rooms,to do it effectivly,cause when i do grow,i grow and you cant do it with just one closet to work out of,also didnt see any difrence in my utility bill,so im down with old school stuff of 12 12,lmao
I do 16/8 for veg and 11/13 for flower,not for energy reasons but mainly to get closer to the schedule they might see outdoors and also the pheno expressions are more pronounced to me with an hr less of light,my first 2.5 yrs growing I did the 18/6 and 12/12 but now I'm just doing my own weird thing lol
