10 days without light.

ODanksta · Jan 10, 2015

So this is what happens when your power goes out for 10 days... I'm not going to go in on why it went out. This stupid shit just cost me a lot of money... seems like the plants that had just went into flower took the hardest hit. I don't think they will recover.

Here are the ones that were 4 weeks into flower

Most of the plants a month into look like they will make it, but nothing is drinking any water. Everything looks weak, and has a lot of yellowing.. very sad beginning of the year, but I hey, I quit drinking alcohol...

UncleBuck · Jan 11, 2015

yep, looks about right. happened to me once.

without light driving photosynthesis to make the plants uptake water, they basically just slowly rot.

roots rot and so does the foliage. horrible stuff.

Dude its aplant remember that just add some watter a cup at a time they will grow what happens when a big ass tree in the forest covers a plant? It still grows have faith they will come.back just give the girls some tlc

keep your chin up s*** happens you will learn from it and you'll recover and you'll come back better for it now if you were to try to save them I would let them get indirect light for a few days to recover, thrown back on a veg cycle of light, cut out the bad stuff ,completely reveg it, and start it over supercropped and ready to yield. Best of luck
peace

no, there is simply no way to recover at all. the root system is fucked.

Would the roots be fucked up if it was watered that day and it way kept cool? Like it is a plant dude some plants go weeks without water in nature so why cant his recover?

Place them in pans of Luke warm water and allow them to uptake from the bottom. Raise everything and feed a tea. They won't be pretty but might save them. Set yea back a couple weeks for sure.

I can't put them in pans I got to many plants and 25 gallon pots... They were drinking 32 gallons of water a day and now nothing in 10 days.. I am revegging the smaller ones. And I have another house, but this was still a huge hit on me..

I'm not sure where I am going to go, but I am getting out of here. I would really like Oregon or northern Cali. I want to go back to outdoors. I have enough ballast and lights for fairly large greenhouse. Just got to get there first..

They might be able, but you can't turn yellow back to green.. It's probably best to be patient and see what happens, I got a army of clones at my other house, thank god I took cutting of everything before this happen..

natro.hydro · Jan 11, 2015

Shit I got this clone of C99 that I have been trying to root since thanksgiving weekend lol. Stubborn little bitch, the Chem d x blue dream I was rooting at the same time took off so I just called it a loss and left it in the closet with the light off. Checked it the other day, was 12 days of darkness with temps in the low 60's and it made one pathetic translucent root so I figured what the hell she is a trooper and put her in veg to see what it does, prob nothing but who knows, I have seen a trunk of a harvested plant start growing again.

Fast50 · Jan 11, 2015

Damn. That sucks. How you go 10 days without power?

I'd rather not say, lets just say one of my business partners got lazy and didn't hold up his end of the bargain. Then the electric company was giving us a hard time as well. But I learned my lesson, don't have partner's

because they are not in nature, they are in his grow room.

and plants in nature never really have 10 days in the compete darkness. if they do, it's winter in the arctic and they die.

churchhaze · Jan 11, 2015

Not to thread jack, but I've tried cloning c99 a few times now and she's been a stubborn bitch. Every other strain I've grown has taken root in a week without cloning hormones.

I didn't have the 12 days of darkness though.
