You're not the first grower I've heard that's tried to reset the diurnal clock and dance with the Rubisco.
I talked to one guy that had switched to a 32 hour photoperiod during flowering. 18 on / 14 off. And during the on period, from hour 9-10 the lamps would be turned off. And 8 on / 12 off during the late veg "pre-flower" stage.
Looking forward to your results.
Hi, zeke99!
I really don't see this working in flower because of the enforced dark phase. But I think there is a lot of room for light manipulation there that can be achieved using the quantum meter.
Some of the things that come to mind are running more lights and plants for the same electrical cost as what you do now or just reducing the bill, enhancing stealth. Either way the gram per watt ratio goes up. Just plain more efficient.
