Salutations MViker2575,
Welcome to your new home where further fun-sharing certainly awaits ahead!
Not to mention that honest photo sessions alone suffice to keep a man busy after he’s done with more basic duties…
Sorry about having more questions than answers but i often happen to feel curious about non-conforming ideas i guess, especially aspects of non-standard days, and of course the matter of finding suitable timers if any (!):
This was about “smart meters” detecting the crystal-precision (metronome) signature of indoor gardens but it also raised interrogations relative to how much light/dark is actually required for a plant’s pumping cycle(s) to remain healthy. No doubt there’s a lot of conservatism to be expected but i yet have to find stories providing details over truly observed tradeoffs instead. Which won’t be of much comfort considering i can only regret not being able to offer clues myself. M’well, at least in a future i can foresee…
Anyway simple intuition tells me 2 hours darkness sounds a bit remote from the old GLR schedule, if not extreme (?), so perhaps you may want to consider something less radical in preliminary explorative experiments. In any case i find hard to believe so few people ever wondered about similar interrogations, hence i wish you luck following your own instincts as it might come with rewarding lessons too.
Good day, have fun!!
