hiya soser

i meant that even if i do disagree, points may be right. same as if i agree :-)

16-8 works best for cuts, seedlings and veg. the extra 2 hours dark makes a massive diff in rooting times, root mass, foliar growth, plant size, and you save the power too :-)

might have to give that a try i was basically 24 hrs veg this time under t'5 as i was looking for males and noticed plants to a longer time to hit there full veg stride thought it might of been temp related thou as my veg was running fairly high imho at 75-avg degree's - What is your optimal veg temperature .. ?

I use 12-1 for seedlings veg and cuts. Save even MORE power and plants sex faster and rapid growth. GAS LANTERN ROUTINE. .

hi gamrstwin

funny, i was going to add that you can go 12 hours hps and 24 hours t-5s on big rooms and get crazy growth, and save mega power.

but we are kind a talking about seedlings :-) so i held back :-)

but ya, 21-1 shows pre flower prob faster then anything

how do you find it effectm/f ratios gamrstwin??

med-man


Actually im glad you asked. Cuz i would love for you to explain the 21-1 method . Well I've noticed Versus reg time (18-6) my ratio of fem to Males have increased. I try to pop 10 at once. Outta ten 8 fems. But its mostly 12hrs on 5.5 hrs off 1hr on 5.5hrs off and repeat. With reg time (18/6) 4-5 fems 6 males on average. Reason why i love GLR soo much.

Your running in veg how I run 24, it's the best way to veg IMHO I use to go for the higher female to male count but not no more. I found that 24 hour veg gives you better representation of the mother plant used in the cross, which is what I'm looking for in most crosses anyways.

Hells yea @EVOKE..

And im pretty sure maybe mixing up the light schedule can also push a male to flower i have heard some strains being really light sensitive to schedules so could most def be that too that much i am sure of!
