Hello to everyone....
This is my third grow and I'm growing AK - 48 and it's in the 35th day of flowering, and I think, doing fairly well in all respects; however, I know it will take longer than the shorter times that are touted. Has anyone used the 10 / 14 light schedule, as in 10 hours of light and 14 hours of darkness.
It seems I've never been one to leave well enough alone, (If it's not broken, don't fix it) so I was just reading that with some strains, the extra hours of darkness may speed up the process, and cut a week or two off total time, but the trade-off is a lower yield due to decreased light time. I'm thinking the trichomes will go from clear to milky faster and more pistils will curl inward, etc? If anybody has any experience doing this and thinks there is a notable difference, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks to everyone and top o' the day.
