Developing pushed c41

[Ben johns]

I just developed my first roll of c41, vision 3 50d. It went well and I now want to use 500t at night. I’d like to push it 1 stop to 1000 but I don’t know how you develop pushed c41. I’ve read a few things about it and they all suggest different amounts of time to add to the development. I also assume that the extra time is only with the development and not the bleach?

Yes any extra dev time is only with the developer.

As for additional time, I can't advise but for one stop I would suspect that you would get away with the standard duration.

Tinsley in Rotary Processing Manual (1992) said some films could be pushed (Ektapress 400 and 1600) N = 3' 15" N+1 = 3'45" AND N+2= 4'15" , but colour films not generally designed for this and testing recommended.
