Agree. One of my old school Hippy mentors told me if you leave them in darkness for 36 hrs right before flip they'll flower faster.......

Flushing is quite the controversial subject. Some do it, some say its bro science. I start cutting back on nutes late in flower, but never fully starve the plants

12 hour darkness trigger the release of florigen hormone wich induce flowering a 24h 36h dark period at the beggining of flowering create a bigger release of florigen hormone wich make the transition to flower a little faster.

darkness before harvest slightly increase thc but noticeably reduce terpene.

also put you as risk with mold as humidity is usually higher at night.

i'm all for more terpenes, i don't care about 1-2 more or less % of thc

still bullshit,. doesn’t prove shit
tell me how they know exactly the perfect ripeness of the trichome before darkness meaning the extra days will help the trichome ripen more anyways,.. and also losing other ingredients,..
what’s the measurements of all ingredients inside the trichome head before darkness
man i could go on and on,.
i can make up graphs and pretend to know shit too,.
fucking marijuana science world is still learning and discovering new terpenes and cannabinoids etc,. so how the fuck does anyone really know that much,. obviously since modern weed (late80’s-present) it’s been all about thc and that is exactly when weed started getting crap,.
my science doctor is mostly my own experience from times before modern weed when you really exactly got high,..
check out led light reviews comparing hps from 10 yrs ago heck even 5 yrs ago, hahaha such bullshit that all has be debunked now,.
it’s just a world full of lonely people wanting some sort of recognition from the marijuana community,. hahahaha

what the darkness before flowering?
i think its has to do with responding to far red and far far red faster,.
but that might be with mh/hps or older leds,.
cant see it helping with full spectrum,. either way i’d rather lower the time till 12 hours than a drastic switch in hours,.

Dr bugby debunked the darkness it's nonsensical, the plants take a long time to make trichomes so your not producing dick in 48 hours ,also darkness will do nothing to help trichome production.
Also flushing, when in nature is a flood good?
