some people like to leave the plants in a dark place for a certain time before they harvest. i've known people to say it brings extra trichomes. i can only imagine that the cooler temps without the lamps might have something to do with the extra trichomes. personally i don't do it, but i know great growers that do it. some will give it 3 days of darkness before they harvest.

Interesting idea.. I was just initially worried about my plant going hermie because of a change in the light cycle, but I guess those 2 or 3 days or darkness wouldn't even be enough time for male parts to pop out and burst open and all of that right when you are all ready at the end of the flowering anyway.. Maybe I'll give it a try
On second second thought how does this factor into revegging after harvest? If I'm growing a plant which I know has some finnicky genetics in regards to hermaphroditism would this 3 day darkness period mess up the revegging in anyway and possibly influence the plant in her next round?

hi Froth,
Thankyou for stopping by and thank you for the compliments.
The plant produces THC during the dark cycle. So at the end of its cycle just before harvest we put our plants into a 48 hour darkness whereby the plant will produce its max amount of THC.
It is also recommended that you not water the plant if growing in soil. Its best to harvest her when the soil is dry.
I dont know about re-vegging, as I have never done that.
Re-vegging requires a light period of 24/0 to get the plant started again. As I grow outside using the sun I dont have that luxury of keeping the light shining for 24/0
From expierence, I have never encounted hermies right at the end.
I would not worry about it.

Out of the two we smoked last night Ronley, this was my favorite. The taste was amazing. As I told you, I'm a coffee snob, and this weed really does have overtones of cappocino.
Hope you have a challenging and exciting day at work.
