how would you reverse that interuption anyways? just give it another 24 hours of straight light and go back to the 12/12 cycle?/

I've put alot of thought to this. I always check my plants just before the lights come on. I use a 13w flo drop light. Even in nature there are very bright moonlite nights. I have been outside at 2am and you could see hundreds of feet in any direction. I don't think that with that much light in nature that inturupting your night with very weak lights that far away you will do anything to your plant. There are days that it is so overcast that you would think it was midnight. And if your on the same time line as me even if (and I don't think it's very likely) it did go hermi you would be harvesting before the pollen sacks open and def before the plants could start to form seeds..... Don't sweat it

this is true - but nature doesn't care if your plants hermie. :mrgreen:

Besides - you'd really have to know how much real light energy the plant receives from the full moon and replicate it monthly.

also hermies have the added problem of less THC production (since instead of filling up empty seed sacks with resin - the plant does produce seeds which requires its energy).
