***posted in general section an hour ago with no response - hoping for one here, sorry for the impatience***
Friends, a 'buddy' of mine came home today and noticed that his hydro system was off due to a small space heater being plugged into the same GFCI as the system thus causing the fuse to trip. It happened around 8 am and he fixed it when he got home at 6pm. The good part is that during the day the lights are off so there is no issues there (he is in his 3rd week of flowering 12/12 - plants are stocky and about 30-35" high). However, the watering system was off all day (as well as the fans, but i doubt that is really important) - the watering system consists of the airstones and the watering system that runs for 15 mins every couple hours (if i remember correctly). The temperature was about 65 degrees F in the system throughout the day. He fixed the problem by moving the cord for the space heater to a different outlet. He checked the plants using the green lights they sell and everything looked fine, no real wilting. The water level was not low so the roots were submerged enough to my knowledge.
He is nervous that perhaps it stressed the plants or cause some damage but I assured him that if they looked fine and they didnt deviate from the lighting schedule that it should be okay. Was I correct in saying this?
Thanks!
