Hey Kushgod, you talk about light deprivation and I get why it's needed but how do I go about that when the plants are ready to flower. Is it complete 24hour darkness or do they still need some light? I've searched for a couple threads on here about if but there ain't too much. Thanks
You simply move the plants into complete darkness for 12 hours at night then return them to the sunshine 12 hours later. So say 7am - 7pm out in the garden and then 7pm - 7am in complete darkness. I use and 6ft x 6ft x 8ft aluminium shed. I've also lightproofed it to stop any light leaks which is of upmost importance and installed fans and ventilation for fresh air supply. You can simply place them in a dark room for 12 hours if you can't create a flowering chamber but it has to be totally lightproof, not even a crack of light can get to those plants during dark hours or you risk hermaphrodites, you don't want that. It's very simple really and I highly recommend light dep in tricky climates especially
