Hello GWE Community -
I am on my first grow - the plants were put on the 12/12 flowering schedule about 4 weeks ago, I have them light during the night (cheaper electricity and easier to control the temperature) and they were doing excellently until last Friday - I had to have some electrical work done on my house - so the electricity was turned off for several hours - when it was turned back on, the lights all came on about 4 hours too early (arghhh!!) - Unfortunately I didn't notice until they had been on for about a half an hour - I unplugged them, re-setup the timers and unexplicably got the time wrong by 12 hours (the old am/pm thing) so when they turned on, they were only on for about an hour!! When I noticed that error, I quickly turned the timers on, re-setup the timers again, this time getting the am/pm thing right, I forgot to put the timers back into "timer" mode (I gotta cut back on smoking), so the plants were subjected to 18 hours of light before noticing that error!! (double arghhh!!!) I put them back on the 12/12, but now I would not be at all surprised if the plants are now back in veg mode -
I know the whole sequence is a bit confusing, suffice it to say, I totally screwed up the light cycle for about 24 hours. The question is, how can I tell if they went back to veg mode? If they did, how can I coax them back to flower? What other problems can I expect from this snafu?
Thank you for any insight or advice,
Warmly
Coyote
