U realize u can just lower the light so it’s closer to the plants that way u can turn it down so it produces less heat but still gives u the necessary dli #’s!

I do. And that works as well.

Just know if your leaves are smoking u put the light a little too close so raise it an inch or 2!

I’m busy and can’t watch this right now but anything french toast is up my alley! Why i love bread pudding cuz its like a french toast cake to me! Especially if u make it with half and half cinnamon and cinnamon raisin bread!

Alfredo sauce on french toast instead of syrup and cinnamon. You haven't lived till you try this.

i understood it differently and have also seen side by side tests where extended dark times before harvest increased cannabinoid content so i dont know who to believe, as with most subjects lol

I'd also be interested in any difference in chlorophyll levels.

I dry and cure in darkness in belief that it lessens the formation of additional chlorophyll after cutting.

Oh it absolutely does; that's literally one of the reasons we do both of those things in the dark.

The difference between pre-harvest darkness and post-harvest is that the plant is still very much alive pre-harvest. Even when you chop the plant, it's not "just dead," there are biological processes that will continue to function to the best of ability until those processes slow down and cease.

My argument is that you're already achieving chlorophyll degradation by A) stopping biological functions of the plant by harvesting and B) sticking them in the dark to dry and cure.

Is sticking your plants (while still alive) in the dark somehow jump starting chlorophyll degradation? There are studies on the effect on plants exposed to total darkness on the levels of chlorophyll, and data to substantiate decreasing levels over an extended period of time, but not in 24 or 48 hours.

I've seen growers in other groups taking advice from others that they had to do this, only to end up with moldy plants because it's not a natural process, there is no standard process to even do it (24 hours? 48 hours? 72 hours? Fans on? Off? You feeding? Watering? Letting your heavy wet pots sit in the dark?)
