Me being a tight fairy was thinking about using the Gas Lantern Technique for my veg tent as it's usually always on. End up saving 5 hours of light every day will reduce the cost of leccy quite a lot. But would the plants be as healthy? What is your thinking?
For those who don't know what The Gas Lantern Technique is here is some info:
The gas lantern technique’s mythology stems from the farmers of yesteryear. Wishing to scare off nocturnal pests in order to protect their precious crops, farmers would take gas lantern lights out to their fields in the dead of night. The bright objects would ward off invaders but also had a surprising effect on the crops themselves. It appeared that the vegetative state would be prolonged, resulting in higher yields and healthier plans.
Here’s how it works. Beginning in the vegetative state of the plant life cycle, lights are on for 12 hours, followed by 5.5 hours of darkness. Lights them come back on for an hour, with another 5.5 hours of dark after that. The cycle then repeats. This is in comparison to the traditional 18 hours of light followed by six hours of dark typically seen in marijuana grows.
i`d stick to wat ewe used to tbh but who knows ?
