Harvest & Curing Will fewer hours of light speed up maturation?

[AppleFritter]

I have a plant on day 90. Triangle Kush from Mephisto genetics



Will fewer hours of light speed up maturation? I want to take her to day 100 (ten more days). Tricks mostly cloudy

You have a lot of white pistils, so 10 days should be nary a problem.

@AutoWonders im confused. Will ten days of normal light schedule be enough?

You will be close. Have you checked the trichs?

Yes, 10 days of normal light. Were it my plant, I would be running the lights around the clock. Just keep an eye on the trichomes, like you've been doing and you should be fine. I don't think you posted what lighting schedule you were using. If you changed to 12/12 for instance, that would debilitate an autoflower. I've had quite a few strains finish early with around the clock lighting. Since I changed from mass built leds to cob lights, my strains go the distance or even a little longer in some cases.

Thanks for your help. I've been running and will maintain running 19/ with mars II 900. I suppose 10-14 more days isn't too bad. I hope seeds don't develop from having such a mature plant.

This is incorrect. My plants went the distance or longer because I turned off the lights during hot weather 2-4 hours per day. That has been the only difference. Once back to fulltime lights, they will grow faster again.
