My plant is on a 12/12 cycle has been for 4 weeks ish. I messed up the lighting before. It was ment to be off from 1am to 1pm but i messed up and it went off at 3 am. I just changed the cycle. And dropped tuy back by half hour every day till it was back at the 1am to 1pm cycle. But I messed up last night. I didn't go dark till maybe 4:30am. I was just wondering if I should do my little trick again by bringing it back half hour every day so it can get back to 1am to 1pm dark cycle. It's only missing half hour of light a day then and having still 12 hours of dark. My light is ment to go on in 10 min but I am gonna leave it till half 4 then turn it dark at 4 does that make sense so basically I'm dropping half hour of light over a number of days keeping my plant in 12 hours of dark till I get back to my normal cycle. Or shall I go back normal now even tho my plant would of only had 8 hours dark?
HELP 12/12 messed up

Your post is slightly confusing. But you don't need a fancy way to shift the dark cycle. Just give them 24h dark and turn on the lights when it's time you want them to resume. So in your case, the next 1am that gives a 12h or greater dark period.

Get a new timer.
cheers so basically I went dark at half 4 this morning so half 4 this afternoon will be when I turn the light on to make sure it's had 12 hours of dark. So do I turn the light off at 1am the normal time I would. Even tho it will of only had 8 and half hours of light? I know it hurts the plant more if you mess up the dark period. So the light it misses out on will not effect it because its still had 12 hours dark. Is that basically what you are saying mate? So tonight I return to my normal cycle? Cheers bud

We can' all be a big dogs like you
Csn tell your the arrogant up ya own arsed types. Obviously I am the timer and obviously we haven't all got big budgets like you big dog
Obviously I do it NOT for profit I do it for a nice smoke. My own smoke. What I grew. Not to make money like u lad I can tell you don't even enjoy weed u only enjoy growing and selling. That's where me and u are different boy. I don't care about profit or anything. I'd I grew a plant and it had one joint / spliff on it I would be happy if that one joint tasted mnice and smoked nice. That's where me and you are different boy

Relax bro. No ones calling you poor for having no timer. I've got tons of timers. But I am still there at lights on and lights off to be sure everything did what it's supposed to (same as turning on by hand).
He was just saying that you are the timer so there's nothing to "set" per the other users post.
Can just tell with the guys wording in his other post the guys a arrogant type. Must be American. Well here in England where its illegal and full lockdown shits hard to come by. Been on lockdown for months and no amazon delivery's where I am or anything so yeah the guys just a profit guy ya can tell them types he likes to feel like the know it all. He's That type of guy

Also I fucking mechanical timer costs about $5
You went off half cocked. Now I expect an apology

Well now aren't you just the tiny little asshole.
I'm one of the most helpful people here you jackass. I wasn't trying to make fun of you. But I'm probably gonna follow along and correct you at every fucking turn now.
You poked the bear for legitimately zero reason.
Don't get mad at me because you know fuck all about growing. Or collecting $5 for a fucking timer.
Oh your timer is at a hardware store. Asshole
