Whenever I want to initiate darkness for my plants, I just show them the news.

Dr Bugbee is just simply amazing at his job. It's like watching a beaver build a dam, he was born to do this.

This is great info Dr Bugbee! I have a hypothesis about green photons. As you've noted, they penetrate deeper into plant tissues. I propose that those photons bounce around hitting various organelles within the cells until their energy state degrades. In other words, they eventually turn red and then get scooped up for photosynthesis, etc.. It's similar to the way blue photons pass through a phosphor coating and turn green.

YOU SAVED MY ENTIRE CROP OF 8 PLANTS FROM RQS COMPANY. This is my first grow and I knew about the light during budding thing. What I did not put together was that my "Clone Room" (bathroom lol) and my Kitchen were pointed directly at the plants. They stopped EVERYTHING and after I watched this I went out to see how dark it was. It wasnt. I turned them off and after only 4 days they are doing GREAT! THANK YOU!!!!!!
