Darkness

[aluvhibs]

Starting back up after 4years out. Just wanted to know when was the latest that I can put the youngsters on it . I receive my first batch next week. Thanks

Your youngsters will be fine if you put them on it and from the advice I have received on this site it's simple in that you need more darkness than light time and the more time ( weeks/months ) then there is more opportunity for the darkness system to take more effect

You only need 6 weeks on the dark minimum for it to work effectively
