I'm one of the people effected by the GSM fire. My plants are going to be in darkness for 5 or 6 days till power is restored. Travel is restricted so I can't move them. They let us in for a few hours today, so i watered them good, and set it up so the lights would come on as soon as the power is back on.IMG_20161202_121918.jpg IMG_20161202_121911.jpg IMG_20161202_121922.jpg

Having trouble posting from my phone. My house gets very little direct light, they're getting the equivalent of a 23 watt CFL for four or five hours a day. What can I expect from all this?

There's as much airflow as possible, and they were all very dry. I think they would have died for sure without some water. Thanks for the replies. We're all supposed to be home by Wednesday at the latest, I'll just have to deal with any problems then

As long as Its not longer, I wouldn't sweat it.. Some leaves may lighten And some stretch but they'll be fine.. I went 3 days without power and my plants didn't do shit really.. No stretch no nothing..

Should be fine, unless you've got a hypersensitive strain, which could end up throwing some bananas. I've only got one keeper strain that is this sensative, most (in general) aren't.


Depending on how much longer the power is out, you can buy/rent a generator. Nice and quite is a solar generator. With enough panels it should be ample.



More importantly, you and your loved ones were not in danger/harmed by the fire.

Keep us posted.

Thank you for the thoughts.
The two actively flowering are a gth#1, and a jack herrer, not sure about the gth, this is a 4th gen clone jack and it seems pretty stable, none of the predecessors hermed.

I caught up with my friend and his family, and we went to a motel for three days. Then I took off to give them some more room(and get some, myself.). I intended to go to the shelter, but a nice person told me to go to the super 8 motel in pigeon forge. All I had to do was go up to the desk, and they knew what was up. They gave me a free room till Monday, no questions asked. The authorities said town would be open to the public Wednesday, earlier if possible for locals. So Monday I'm going to the shelter in Gatlinburg. But really it's not bad, it's the rockytop sports center, brand new sports facility, hot showers, cots, TVs, meals at the highschool next door, and it's 15 minutes from my house. So. Except for the first night getting out of Gatlinburg, the worst things I've had to endure is my fiend snoring, and boredom. Oh yeah, and the rash I got helping save my friends pig. Apparently I'm allergic to pig hair.
