What's up folks? Got something I need to ask you guys(and girls). For some FUCKED UP reason my timer never shut the lights out. I am probably about a week to 10 days away from harvest. What do you think will happen? Will the plant get screwed up and "Herm out" or something else? Should I just cut it now? Thanks in advance!

Take it easy dude. It will be fine, just make sure you correct the problem, and get back on the right schedule

The ON cycle for the plant is now. If I leave the lights on for this cycle that means they will be on for 36 hours straight. That won't cause any problems?

"just manually shut off the light for the last 10 days?" I don't have a problem getting another timer, just wondering if it's gonna mess the plant up?

that may cause problems...just do whatever you had going on before.... keep it the same even if you have to do it manually...

Nah, your plants will just vegetate. Take the timer back to Wal Mart or wherever you got it and say this is bullshit and demand a better one

The plant will just vegitate? I don't think it's gonna revert back to veg now. Too far into flowering. 7 weeks. I'm a week away from cutting it down. Might do some other fucked up shit, but not veg.

OK guys, one last thing. If the plant does get stressed out and decide to go hermie on me, how long will it take before the plant fucks up? Any idea?

Don't worry about it, dude. Even if one hermies on you, it takes a couple of weeks for the male flowers to mature, and even longer before the seeds start showing up. You'll have harvested before that, so it's not a worry either way. Just get back on track and ride it out to the end.

It takes about 4-6 weeks to make seeds. 36 hours of light will NOT screw it up, your plant is fine, stop worrying.
