    Default When to cut

    Does it matter when you cut down plants in terms of their 12/12 schedule? I mean is it best to chop down during their light phase or dark or does it not matter? Thanks

    Bro science suggest having darkness before harvest would make for a more potent plant. The only research I've ever seen that might and that's a big might confirm this is by lumigro and they found that if you turn off the red light on a selectable LED the last 3 days you will increase your terpenes significantly.

    We used to let them sit in darkness for 3-4 days always before harvest, always. Still will. I did it for 10 years, i found that it's best to keep it dry so it doesn't get mold growing, asperialius isn't anything you want. The plants will still be processing and living during the cycle and expressing more humidity, so keep it dry. I used to have a hat with a green lamp on it to trim the Fat water leaves off after the second day, then it made timming a bit easier.. just a few cents, best of luck
