daylight savings time and timer

[Love The Rain]

my light comes on at 5pm and off at 5am flower cycle,with time going back a hr do i need to change timer or leave as is? thank you

Just leave it as 12 hrs is 12 hrs. Just means you time will be 4am to 4pm. If you want to change it to 5 till 5 you will need to give them 13 hrs dark i think (i believe extra dark is beyter than extra light in flower)

im sure someone will pipe up who has more experence we dont hsve dls here in western australia

Sorry 13 hrs of dark so when it turns off at 4pm reset the timer to come on a 5am so 13 hrs dark then 12 hrs light and normal cycle 5-5 (mine is 6pm-6am as its spring here and getting warm)

good morning LTR all my timers were on a 4 to 4 schedule I dont think the plants can tell the difference when light goes on, at least thats my thought as long as its 12/12 in bloom it shouldn't matter to your plants
