I just had a pretty major issue. I am in 4th week flowering and my light accidentally stayed on for 20 hours. The "On" switched stayed on whole I was moving things around. I quickly turned it off. I hope it doesn't hurt the plant to hermie. I will turn it back on for 5 hours and then back to its normal cycle.
I had a similar thing happen recently when my timer broke down. The light was on for about the same amount of time and nothing bad came of it
Yeah I put a new timer on it and it was then in the dark for a few hours before lights on again. I thought about leaving them off until it's next lights on period, but couldn't be arsed to dick about. If I left it stitched off for a day I knew I would forget to turn it back on. So it had a few dark hours and back on for 12 again. I didn't get any issues at all but I guess each individual plant could react differently
Cool, good to know. Yeah, I am turning it on now, and back to its normal dark cycle starting at midnight.
Nice addition, Wild Master! You got me thinking that I should supplement the CFL in my Superbox too...it's fun to work within the constraints of these boxes and see how well you can do with it. But damn, I just wanna grow on a larger scale already and get more bud for the effort...
I hear you. I am on the same page. I am moving to a new house in a month and I can't wait to get a bigger setup...
I like what you have going on. I'm very new too have a same thread. (Sades first grow green crack.) Im definitely subbing into this. Let's Smoke About It....
I am surprised because it gets plenty of it. I give it 2.5ml per gallon every time and I let the pH fluctuate to 6.2
Check the calibration of your ph meter. I had the same problem.. was a calcium deficiency. My meter drifted.. I thought I was at 6.1... ended up around 5.3 after calibration. If you know you got your nutrients spot on... might be a ph issue. Sent from my SM-N900P using Grasscity Forum mobile app
My pH meter was off by .1, but I guess I may have had it at 5.6 then for a while and calcium got locked out for like a week It ducks because I am seeing some small spots in the new growth that I will smoke later... Is it going to affect that?
My spots didn't go away, and after a few days it stop spreading. Eventually they turned slightly purple. Didn't seem to affect the plant at all. It just kept chugging along with new growth. I do a random ph test now with drops every so often. Just don't trust that continuous ph meter anymore. Sent from my SM-N900P using Grasscity Forum mobile app
I do... definitely. .. mostly between 5.8 and 6.1.. I don't get much fluctuations now. I'm currently flowering and the ph is real steady. During my veg it would rise a lot. Sent from my SM-N900P using Grasscity Forum mobile app
