Ppl think I'm fucking crazy when I tell them I've been doing that for 3 years now
Hell, even Ed Rosenthal knows this trick... ;-)
news to me map or sun can you break it down or link me to an ed Rosenthal article. Double JJ hits his from 3 am - sunrise when most people would be asleep I thought that was clever but you seem to have a better way i'd like to know it if you don't mind sharing.
are y'all talking about the 12-6-2 trick but instead of 2 hours just running a few minutes to disrupt dark cycle?
No, they are saying that you don't need hours of supp light interruption, you just need a few minutes.
I run them for an hour,would like to cut that down.???

30 minutes at 430 am - keeps them on track for the sun cycle.
I hit them from 2-3 am...is the time of night important

what type of light are you using? ime lesser intensity requires more illumination time. i would bet dollars to donuts that the same could be said for spectra.
"Another technique is to interrupt the dark cycle with light. The light doesn’t need to light the plant for long, just a few seconds. Think of it as a water spray. You want to get all the leaves “wet” with light, but once they have been sprayed they need no more light. This short interruption of the dark cycle is enough to reset the time count of uninterrupted darkness. By lighting the plants every few hours during the dark period, the plants continue to grow vegetatively, and not flower."
The article spells out how to dep and other secrets of photoperiod, too.

Thank you very helpful
i tried something similar on my indoor veg room to cut back on the power bill, and noticed it tended to stack the nodes much tighter sort of like a PGR would, anyone else notice that? basically ran the 1kw MH the 12/12 cycle and had a CFL supp lighting system that would turn on for 6 hours.
definatley would like to cut down the veg power bill so might have to try the 30 minute trick.

In the gh I have one of those big grey box timers so the pins only get so close, about an hour. I do 1am-2am.
It's in the book Rosenthal wrote for oaksterdam university. The case study they reference uses a few compact fluorescent s clamped to a pvc and the girl just slowly walks down the rows, that's all they need.
I use 400 watt hp for my outdoor pre-veg. And do 30 minutes just to be safe. I've seen shop light 4 foot t8 fluorescent from home depot work fine. You don't really need much at all. My test is to go on the back side of the leaf and wave my finger on the front side. If I can see my fingers shadow from the backside of the leaf then lumens are clearly pent rating thenleaf.
You really don't need much at all but u play it safe with the 400 hp and 30 minutes when people are nighty nighty tucked away in bed already.

So this is a politics thread...let's not get derailed.
Did you guys read that article. Over 50 new state initiatives that will effect the industry.
We need to unionize. We will be working on that soon in yuba, I'm already networking with people.
Anyone hear about how Shasta over turned their ban? I heard they have to been in a greenhouse though, no straight outdoor.
