Yeah one or two days won't do anything. They get clouds in real life too ;) So you are fine. Now get everything away from your electrical. Get your electrical UP OFF THE FLOOR!! Remember water will flow down and we use lots of it. So Electricity UP UP.

Oh and I store all my soilless etc...... in large Rubbermaid containers because I don't want to deal with bag's changing dimensions and instability.

I saw a Youtube of two guys trying to bypass the meter base after the meter had been pulled. They had a pair of vise grips and a set of jumper cables. The flash almost blanked out the screen and knocked one guy on his ass...and damn if the other guy didn't try the same thing...and got zapped too! I'll see If I can find it, funny as hell.

And they put it on YouTube... Idiots....
All you gotta do is pull out your meter and turn it over.... It'll run backwards! Just like you would have a massive wind turbin, or bank of Photo Cells...

Talk about energy savings....
Hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I had a power outage that knocked me out for a day, and when it came back on, it fired up during the day and not the night. I was so pissed, but had to ride it out for the long haul. I hate my lights being on during daylight, the cost is higher per KW and hotter too. No hermies, just a PIA to work in my garden every night when I'm home from work with a friggin' green light on my hat for 2 months.
