Light has been coming on 15min everyday half way through dark period. What happens now?

Post by Benjic93 »

So I've got my plants in week 5/6 of flower. There under 2 LED boards. 1 plant has been flowering so slow, not much pistils for her age and still producing heft amount of leafs. This plant is directly under the light that's been coming on.

I went to test my timer to make sure its in working order and have only just realised a notch is flipped at about 1pm. Now the light are scheduled 4am off 4pm on. I must of knocked it at some point but I don't know how long it's been going on. 3 other plants seem to be well into flower but certainly not a 5 week flower

It's seemed to have cause no herms, but it seems like she's trying to revege. I've rectified the timer but I feel I've wasted 5 weeks of time and electricity.

Do they go back into flower and I have to wait another 8-9 weeks? Are they going to be worth the hassle or be monstrous.

I just don't know. Proper deflating.

Ive done this myself mate

the ones that have started to reveg will start the flower cycle all over and your likely to see another 2 weeks of stretch before true flower really kicks back in

Your gonna have to throw out your weeks count and just go by the look of the plants and the trichomes if you choose to carry on with them. i have carried on in the passed and had acceptable yields but i also had other plants and a stock of bud at the time so didnt mind waiting

Dam, thankyou for the response. Honestly, if these would of stretched another week they'd be hitting the light. I don't think I can afford another 3 weeks lol. Oh man. Can't believe it. Over 3 months gone. There goes the Christmas presents.

By looking at that pic would you say its trying to reveg? I can kind of tell by the leafs on top. The other 3 don't seem as bad but I'm guessing they've been affected.

Yeh it seems shes trying. But its litteraly halted the past week or so and just exploded with leafs.

Youve pretty much verified what I thought would happen. I'm going to give them a few days the other 3 doesn't look like that. They seem more mature with actual bud sites but I'm guessing there probably still going through the re veg process.

bugger starting over at this point id supercrop as much height off the stems as possible so allowing for another stretch period without hitting the light,
my grasslin timer has a flip up plastic cover for just this reason as i too have upset a timer more than once,hence spending rather more than id like but better that than troubles. and as theres reveg the bending and scropping is less likely to severely shock it,good luck

I'd do what Duke says and give them a good bending here and there.

They'll probably be cracking plants come chop time.

Fingers crossed for a New Year chop maybe???
