Major F-UP

Hello my friends,
I have two sweet girls that are on week 6 of flowering and I accidentally did the unthinkable. I some how hit the timer switch to on and before i realized it, the girls had 36 straight hours of light. Anyone like seeds, lol!

Been there, done that. Good Luck

Should be fine if it was only once

Auto or photo?

It's not anywhere near enough to reveg them. You need more than 4 days of veg cycle lighting for that, probably more like 7 days, well thats my experience anyway.

I was thinking around those lines.

It takes some time to turn one "weeks" and once you do she looks pretty rough....

Cool news! They are photos. Justvstarted week six of flowering. Godfather og.

Did i mention that i just started my uvb light. 15 minutes twice a day. Makes d big difference.

Hope you wear eye protection.

UVC is great for killing mold spores and killing humans.

Benefits of running UV are, well, you don't need UV to have big healthy buds. I used to run 385 to 425nm supplemental lights and my results without them using full spectrum are probably just as good if not better. Also used to run 660 & 730nm reds but don't any more.

Hi Bluey, I'm running a UVB, not UVC. Big difference.

 

[Bluey]

Yes, I understand.

I think you would be far better off running under canopy lighting....normal outdoor floods (weatherproof) up to 20% of above canopy lighting amount.

Research appears to be leaning that way from all I have read.

Interesting, I'll do some research. The only issue is that I don't have any space above my lights. I grow in a small tent.

Under canopy as in under the plant shining upwards
