    Default Unanswered: Reducing the lights for my final couple of weeks?

    Running 3 x Telos pro 10 mesh LEDs in my space and wondering if I should reduce the light output from 100% to 75% now for the final two weeks?

    Just what some guy advised me in the nute store yesterday when I went for my last bits

    Something along the lines of not wanting to overdo them and all the lovely crystals so close to the end

    Sounded a bit of bro science to me but then I did think he could be genuinely looking out for me

    This is the place to ask anyhow so thoughts welcom


    Cheers guys

    That's what I do. It's akin to introducing an artificial autumn.

    Turning down your light for the last couple weeks will help with ripening.

    If you don't reduce the light you risk foxtailing or so I've found in my grows.

    No point wasting electricity if it's not going to result in a better plant.
