Here is the info from Rosenthal's book:

Here is another article from Ed addressing your situation, Pop:

He suggests an opaque polyethylene greenhouse cover.

Shine a 730nm led on them as soon as it gets dark.

It takes about 2 hours for a plant to realise its dark out but the red light will make it produce phytochrome immediatly so it gives an extra 2 hours of dark time. Plants will flower with only a 10 hour dark period instead of 12. Just something to consider..

Real sun= trich overload! (if you`re lucky with the weather) ...So there!
...If the weather is Shite, then, Bugger...Goodbye Herb! :twist:
Ya make your own choices...and never blame no-one else!

Doesnt the infared make the plants stretch more?

 

[evol]

No because youre only shining it on the plant for a few seconds to stimulate phytochrome.

Iv unapproved your post Imdbowlgod, That is wrong and as backward as you can get....Veg & Flower in photo period plants is based on light schedule...A photo plant will not begin to flower till it receives 12 hours of uninterrupted darkness......If you Don't know what your talking about please refrain from answering questions, a lot of people rely on quality info to grow there med's and info like such could really sent some one back......Every plant is different some are more sensitive then others I had one out side, that just would not start flowering! it was October? I'm thinking what the hell is going on, So Im standing at the back door and boom my neighbors house lights up! he had a motion sensor light that comes on 50 times a nite and it was enough to stop it from creating the hormones to start flowering! moved it to the other side and in a week she fired off like a rocket.

I take it you have grown outside in a greenhouse?
Or do you speak from 1 plant?

I have a monster that is just starting to hit pre pre flower and others that are showing the same, some that will flower a little later.

Light leaks are not as much of an issue outside.

Outdoor growing is different.
