    #359960 - 02/08/10 12:53 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

has anyone ever tried that tek to squeeze out the last bit of trichomes?? i often read to do that with WW, but does it really work? or is WW the only strain that will really benefit from the darkness last week or so?? in a way i understand the last bit of stress to get it to be sexually frustrated, but with no light there wont be any turgor to get those trichs to come out...  thanks

I thought the recommendation was 48 hours before harvest you leave it in the dark cycle.  I've never tried it myself but had planned on it.

From everything I've gathered it serves no practical purpose or significant results.

Never done it, never plan to...

I did it on my first grow. the plants looked good before the cycle, and they looked good after the dark cycle too.




so there.
