i seen on a post that turning off/on even a matter of a few mintues ahead or behind a 12/12 flowering cycle can ruinin the crop, thing is i have no timer and have been turning off/on w/ simple switch, been pretty good so far (have 2 plants on 18/6) but there have been days ive been off like a hour or so b/c personal reasons, i know i cant do this w/ 12/12 but even a few mintues?? i know most people have timers but whats the window?
I highly reccoment getting a timer... you can go to the home depot or menards or something and get one for 5 bucks.... shit, get three in case one breaks. a few minutes won't necessarily ruin the crop, it will just put some stress on it... you'll just be confusing your girl... don't want her to become hermie? get a timer.
