Managing light cycles in a light deprivation greenhouse involves carefully controlling the exposure to light to mimic natural conditions or specific growth requirements. This may be accomplished by creating a consistent schedule based on the plants' needs, such as 12 hours of alternate light and darkness for flowering stages.
Blackout tarps or curtains may be used to block out light during the dark period. During the light period, open the coverings to allows sunlight in. Keeping a detailed log of the light cycles and plant responses may allow you to refine your approach ove time.
