Had a couple of the testers i ran do it out of 30 odd plants , Pulled em off and never saw em again.

yeah i had seen you say that alright, no nanners just a couple balls. heres to hoping they dont return lol
Its them 5 week nanners that fuck you up. I saw ethos on IG write about early flowering plants and how they will throw balls. Even females do it on the main line and this is why sometimes you should wait on sexing plants.

4 0f 4 wedding cake x adub popped. I never check until a 2 day paper towel soak. Those must have popped in a day; had to work to get a couple in pellets. I really hope there's no damage; the tails were much longer than I'd have liked, but not their fault for being explosive.

Not sure if I believe the whole plants go to sleep after 16 hours of light. I mean you can tell when a plant is sleeping versus still collecting light. A healthy happy plant will stay perked up all 18-20 hours the lights are on. Turn out the lights and the droop down. Plus I know healthy plants vegged in 20/4 grow faster than plants in 18/6. So Im a doubting Debby with that glr bs.
Like Amos asked, "if it really works best then why isn't everyone using it?" No one would run anything different if the glr was worth it. No one likes paying more in electricity than is needed.

IME it just depends on light intensity... if you're blasting them with 1000 watts for 24 hours a day, there will be a period where they will droop a little and rest. But, say you put 200 watts over the same plants all day, and they will be reaching for it all day. Like there are only so many light particles(u know what I mean lol) they can take in each day. That's just how I always envisioned it in my mind, i'm probably way off

I've vegged under a 1,000w hps several times at 18/6 and typically healthy plants stay praying the whole time light is on, but any plants not at 100% might not stay praying.IME it just depends on light intensity... if you're blasting them with 1000 watts for 24 hours a day, there will be a period where they will droop a little and rest.

The glr was brought into play to save resources, ie gas/oil, so farmers could save a few bucks. It was never about increasing yield. So as an indoor gardener who wants fast heavy yields, I say motherfunk a gas lantern routine. But it is a nifty way to be more efficient I reckon.

But aren't they saying that the plants flower earlier with no noticeable lack of yield? If so, you don't have to flip at week 4; veg 'til they're where you want them.
I hope more peeps w/ experience will chime in.

Yea, that was just my experience... i'm a newb so I can guarantee my plants weren't 100% lol

So true,what i was just thinking,proof for those naysayers.I get so jelly seeing others growing out heisens gear.I've had to sit on my for 6 weeks waiting for the flower tent to finish,and the next run to go to veg.But this week some are getting wet.. can't wait !!

Are those "cups" even real anymore or is it all commercialized hype driven millennial take a selfie for ig shit now?

I over looked that tid bit.
I couldn't imagine it speeding things up more than a few days which over the course of a year, say like 6 flower cycles minus 3 or 4 days per cycle will only give you an extra 18-24 days which isn't enough to squeeze in an extra crop. I just don't see an advantage other than saving a little money on power cost or lowering temps a little.
When folks say the plants flower earlier I'm assuming they meant the plant starts forming buds at 1 week of 12/12 versus 2 weeks? Are we talking just seed runs or clone runs, because clones tend to start flower in a week or week and a half of 12/12 so a little quicker than the seed run.
I just don't see a plant under the glr yielding the same as a plant ran under a more traditional lighting schedule and every single grow I've seen on forums where the grower was using glr strengthens my assumption.
I remember @Torontoke had a thread years ago but I can't remember if he still uses the glr but I was not impressed with the overall growth under that light schedule.
Wedding dubs front left. Structure tops any seed run I've ever had. Smell is strong on the rub. Theres a couple in there I'm super impressed with.
@Amos Otis these are the ones I sent you. I had unreleased this cross and sent out a few specialty packs to certain individuals. Your gonna love this cross man.
