leroy Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hi all When you change from veg to flower, do you do it gradually, say 1-2hrs per day or just change straight from 18/6 to 12/12. whats the best way to do it cos last grow i got a few hermies and i thought i might have stressed them by going from veg to flower soo quickly..... anyone got any idea's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gummybear Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 (edited) some people like to give their plants a long dark period (24-36hrs) to 'kickstart' flowering if you will. i'm not sure if it has a profound effect, but logic says it does, seeing as it's the dark period that triggers the production of the flowering hormones. it's also helpful as you can choose the time that your light will come on.
