can i keep my plants in total darkness for a few hours?

hey ,hows things. I need some advice so here goes.

My light cycle is 7 am to 7 pm at the moment.But i have a big problem,there is going to be a plumber coming out to change the heating system in our house in the next few weeks, We were told it'll only take a few hours , and i'm not sure if he will be even going into the bedroom where my plants are growing in my closet or not. if he needs to do anything to my radiator in my bedroom and the light is on i'm screwd,basicly because there is an extension cord running into it and it's not 100 percent lightproofed.to be on the safe side i was going to disassemble my setup and hide it and hide the plants in the dark for a while..will they still love me after all this is over? or will they show theyre disgust in the form of pollen sacks? it's only going to be one time darkness in the middle of the light cycle for up to 4-5 hours..

Extra darkness won't hurt your plants in flower, not a one-time deal like that. Think of it as a really stormy day if your plants were growing outside. Extra light is what will give you problems and even then it takes a couple days for your plants to notice anything.

They will be fine.

and if you have radiators and he's replacing the boiler, he's going to want to bleed air out of the system at each radiator.

yeah dude your probably right about that,thats why i am gonna hide my shit, but knowing they will be ok i feel alot better now ,thanks.

having it in the dark for a few hrs is fine, one time, it's when they get light leaks during their normal dark period is what you need to be more concerned about. peace

Happy New Year smoke

cool yeah thanks dude

when you tun your lights off for that long i wouldnt turn them back on again during that cycle. I would just go for a really long dark period and start again the next day at 7

That is a really good point! My wife is very much a indoor gardener for everyday plants and all these techniques and little helpful things just really give your plant that plumb, beefy look. You can grow any cannibis plant no different than another indoor plant...if you miss treatment in anyway light, watering, topping at times it will never be the end of the plant...just won't have a plant that produces the best of the best, if that makes sense.

hmm yeh thats a good point
