Light deprivation is a technique used in horticulture to forcecrops to bloom earlier. By depriving a garden of an extended photoperiod, the plants stay in a blooming stage. This means a bigger and better harvest, sooner. The black-out cycle can be done automatically or manually. The black-out cover should be durable and highly tear resistant to endure the rigorous motion of each cycle change during the course of growing.
