Should I give my plants an extra hour of dark or an extra hour of light when it’s daylight savings time? I need to reprogram my timer.

It depends really imo what stage of development the plants are in. If it's veg, i give an extra hr of light. If it's in flower, it gets an extra hr of dark. I try to do no less than 12 hr dark during flower and no less than 16 hr light during veg. -
I have a lot more problems reprogramming myself for the time change than I ever noticed my plants having. Have a great grow !!Focus and relativity.Comment

I leave my flowering timer at the same time and adjust my "check on the girls" schedule to a new time. plant know nothing of daylight savings time and it uselessness.Space for Rent.Comment

I’m in bloom stage end of week 6 DWC. I prefer to keep the lights on during the day for safety reasons (aka wife) and ease of access for maintenance and sometimes to just stare in awe. I’m going to go with more dark just in case. I don’t want anything to happen to the girls this late in the game.DWC hydroponic system 18”x36”x72” cabinet

I'm in my 4th week of flowering and like all other years when the time changes, I'm not planing on changing anything. The plants don't have a clue about daylight savings time. Never had any adverse effect.Comment

Only thing I do, is slowly adjust for lights out (so it is convenient for me 😁)
the timer settings dont change (veg stays 18/6, flower 12/12)

Your 1 day for 1 hour adjustment will not effect anything in either stage. I hear people doing all kinds of things. 24 of light before changing, 24 hours darkness before changing. I personally am a fan of not changing the timer and just letting it ride. Who’s being crazy now. Lol 🤪
i have adjusted both ways in veg and in flower. Nothing weird happened. Just normal growth.4x4 600w HID empty for summer
3x3 400w HID with Bruce Banner and Skywalker Kush
2x2 65w Quantum Board LED with 4 mother strains
running all simultaneously for a perpetual harvests.
