Great success with 24 hours light *PICs*
    #5640694 - 05/17/06 01:41 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

This is my first grow. 1 cake and 1 casing with 2 cakes. all BRF PF tek. While they were fruiting (until the pins were about 3/4" I gave them 24 hours of light. After that height, I switched to ~15 on 9 off.
I've seen much better yields from other people, but I thought I'd share my story, and get other people's input on the 24 hour lighting.



these are the first flushes

i read somewhere on here that fungus is phototropic and therefore light isnt necessary for its growth, but rather for the direction in which it grows :sun:

correct they are more like animals in that sense, they don't really need light to grow but it certainly helps...
and that is an impressive grow, almost no aborts, thoes are some happy B+s'!
what was their dry weight (or wet)?

Light is one of the 3 steps to initate pinning. Your right in the sence that no photosyntheis takes place, you could grow in darkness, but light helps alot.

I use a 4 wat light bulb 12/12 on a timer, works great for me :smile:

Once you have grown for awhile you'll soon realize light plays a bigger part in growth as well as yield especially when setting pins.
