12/12 lighting interrupted!:sad:

[drdodge29]

I am on my last few days of flowering. Day 51 to be exact. I already started flushing 1 res and the other res was gonna get flushed this weekend. I just checked the bottom of the door to my room( which is covered!) and the lights were on. Fuckin piece of shit timer! First time I had a problem with timer. And it's an Intermatic timer, not some piece of crap. Well actually it is a piece of crap, for what it did. My ??????? is now what? My Power Skunk had another week or 2. My Blue Cheese is in it's last stages. All trichs(97%) are cloudy. Out of 30-50 trichs I saw, maybe 1 was clear. And I want a head buzz. So what should I do? Say fuck it and go ahead and harvest. Cause if this set the PS back a few weeks I'd rather just harvest so I can focus on the new one's in flowering. I'm assuming the longest that light could have been on was 5 hours. So someone please give me some good advise and opinions. I really need it. -Dodge

no big deal at all, it would take a week to get the plant to start reverting back to veg just make sure it doesnt keep happening...i did the same, but mine was on for 2 days, with no effect to the flowering plant

Thanks Bro! Wat a relief. So just stick to my regular lighting schedule right?

it takes a lot to kill these things. i used to worry soooooo much then i realized that when a nuclear war happens at least the roaches will have twinkies to eat after they get stoned.

Dude, I don't even use timers and I screw up my light cycle periodically just cuz I forget, and I've never seen any ill effects. Everyone says that if a single photon enters the room at night during flowering that u will get a hermie and that u should just pack up and go home, but I think people who grow weed are just paranoid all the time....thats just my theory tho.

 

[jordisgarden]

i soooooo agree with you dr. i fuck my times up all the time also. and its true. people just are ignorant to the reality. by ignorant i dont mean anything negative, they just dont have the experiance to see what works and what doesmt.......many times ive gone into the room and turned on my light for 10-15 minutes ata time. with no ill effect

by the way as far as them hermiing on ya because of the light cycle. it will never happen. the absoltu worst thing that could happen is that your plant starts to put energy back into veggitating...you can flower tyour plants for 2 weeks just to see what they are female or male. then you can re veg them no prob. its basically the only way you can figure out if they are males or girls, so dont even sweat it for a minute....ive grown a few hundred plants in the past ten years.....i have only had one hermi and thats because it was a femenized seed.

if you want a head buzz ..why not grow a sativa dominant strain..

The Power Skunk is a Sativa. I will figure out eventually what I would like better a Sativa or Indica. My PS is 6' tall! She's taller than me! So I love her smell and the buzz she gives is awesome(I have done a partial harvest), and her taste is OHHHHHH so sweet. Same with the Blue Cheese. It just has a stankier taste and smell to it. But both are smooth. And neither were being flushed during this partial harvest. And they taste GREAT! Very smooth! And SWEEET because of the FloraNectar(sweetener) I used. And both strains give me a "head buzz" because I harvested when trichs were cloudy. So all that, it has to be Sativa for head buzz is not true. I have both a Sativa and Indica. Both are instant rush to the head feeling when u take that first toke. The only difference is in looks, taste, and smell. I will admit, when u first toke on the BC(which is a 75% Indica) the head high is followed with a "trippy" affect. Colors are more vibrant and I get the giggles. But as far as the high, it's still a cerebral high for both strains.

I figured that much. I flowered the ones I'm about to harvest now for 5 days and had to send it back to veg cause I had a root problem. Out of 5 plants 4 were females. Not to shabby first go around.

 

[jordisgarden]

yeah i had 5 out of 6 on my first indoor, then the next time i got 4 out of 6 males....then i moved onto femenizzed and out of 45 ive had to kill 3 males so far. the rest are obvious girls.

No major problem has long has this is a one off bro you will be fine just get them back on 12/12off and you will be ok.if the light was on 12 hours extra give them 12 hours of darkness then carry on with normal scedule.i would only suggest this because you are in the final faze but it will get the hours you lost back.just try and keep the temp right while lights are off.
