hopefully a simple lighting question...

Ok so my girl has been on 12/12 for about 10 days now. But today I'm outta town unexpectedly, so she's gonna get 24 hours of light for one day. Will this cause a lot of damage???

its not good for the flowering cycle and technically could cause it to hermie, but unless youve got really weak genetics that probably would of made the plant hermie no matter what you do/did it most likely wont. why not buy a timer though? they are not expensive......

u dont have ONE person u can trust to take care of it for u? that would very well be enough to throw it back into veg, which will then take another 3 WEEKS to revert it back to flowering. And out of the 2, I would choose darkness over the light for that time, if it HAD to be done.

You'd be better off going with 24 hours of dark in the flower cycle rather than light. At least then the light cycle is just delayed, instead of reversed. Just my opinion.

i would be very surprised if it was enough to revert it, very. however you all make a good point, 24 hrs of dark would be the lesser of 2 evils, i dont know why i didnt think of it. Still though, i think the best option would be to get a timer.

the timer seems the no brainer, therefore I thought for some reason he couldn't work one w/his set up otherwise he would have just done that, who knows.
