Take a look into our Showcase event in Ithaca, NY! Look at the progress of our plants below over the course of a few weeks, with minimal artificial lighting involved. You can see that the plants are just about finished in the vegetative state, and will soon be put into a 12-hour light cycle to trip them into flowering. Terrific growth. In their 18-hour vegetative light cycle, the artificial lights are only being used for half of that time, 9 hours. The other 9 hours is 100% photosynthesis being driven by the sun. And we are still in April! These photos, from April 20th, show the plants stabilizing after being transplanted. These earliest photos, taken within a week of being transplanted, show the plants still scraggly and in a state of stasis as they adjust to the shock of being transplanted.
