72 hours of dark...HELP

I just noticed that my timer isn't working propertly. Went to my room in the am and the lights weren't on. It has been about 48 to 72 hours off. just wanting to know if I should just flick them on at the time I have been having come on or what. Please help!!! Im new so not sure what to do in this case.

are you in flower or veg? either way just turn light on at normal time.

Dude i feel your pain, this happened to me when growing Northern Lights. According to Jorge Cervantes and the Grow Bible when this happens it can take up to 2 weeks to return to your original cycle. If you are in vegatative state then return to your normal veg cycle for 2 weeks at least! If flowering return to cycle 12/12 and it will just be delayed.

Thanx you guys!

Okay i've heard your plants shouldn't be hurt at all! My buddy does a system where he takes his vegging plants and puts them in three days of darkness to help with the stress of moving from fluro to hps. So I would believe if they are in flowering they will be fine if they are vegging dont worry about it just correct the issue and leave running for a few days to return to normal.

They'll be fine just go on with the lights as normal....

Get a dependable timer.

Yup - that's what I was going to say.

Marijuana Horticulture is the best resource out there. I always go there first.

If your in veg then leave them on 24 hours.If the plants arent getting light there not growing.18/6 cycle is a myth a college educated botanist will tell you the same.plants dont need a "rest period" they will grow constantly.and this way you dont have to use a timer except to flower
