A system for mechanically simulating the daylight/dark cycle plants receive. In particular, flowering plants were ripeness is determined when said plants flower. The present system utilizes a multi arch device having a fabric laid over said arch assembly and said fabric comprising sufficient material to extend 360 degrees about a central axis. One half of this material is opaque so as to fully block daylight and the other semi-transparent so as to allow light therethrough. The device rests on the earth in which plants are grown thus half of the fabric is gathered to one side and the other in extended over an array of arches to form a dome-like covering. One central arch is mechanically operable on a timer program so as to simulate shorter days thereby fooling the plant that fall has arrived.
