Title says it all. I have to hide them because of inspections and was wondering if anyone knew.
How long can plants survive without light?

You can go at least 24 hours, but any time "off cycle" stresses them towards hermie.

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. They're going to have to be without light for probably 48-96 hours. And are already Fem so the hermie chance is already higher than normal.

If yo go 48 to 98 hr and return light at 12/12 and bloom them i think you will be fine i know a few people that
Finish the cycle with a week a darkness they dont hermie on them. Not sure how it would go going back to a veg cycle

Yeah that's what I was going to do. I needed to grab a carbon filter too. And on that note how long after beginning of flower do they start to smell? I have some NL, Ak48, Jack Herer, and Super Lemon Haze. I know it depends on the strain a lot but just as a general consensus

Yeah but I still wouldn't want to risk them seeing the door with the vent holes in it. Putting the plants in hiding was to give an extra layer of security. And when I put the room back together I can focus on details I missed earlier.

Well you got x 2 very stinky strains there! I would say a week or too max then a scrubber is needed
