Hi guys.

I know it is early to start talking about dormancy, but I was curious if any using a marshydro or artificial lighting could give me some advice on dormancy.

The easy way is that I transition them to outside and let them go into dormancy naturally. I was wondering how those of you who use artificial lighting go about dormancy. Do you gradually reduce the lighting until you limit the amount of “light” you receive? And if so, how much “light” is necessary to keep them in dormancy?

Many thanks in advance!

Btw, attached is a photo of my dc-xl. Reason? It’s so awesome!!
