Interrupt light in flower???

Hi I had to go into my grow room for about 5 minutes so had to turn lights on? In the dark period of my cycle? Will this effect massively? Or....

Shouldn't be horrible. If you got good stable genetics it might be totally unnoticeable. On the other hand it might herm the fuck out of a shitty bag seed. Time will tell, watch for nanners.

Never go in there during lights off. It can wait. 5 minutes shouldn't hurt but continued interruptions will cause issues. If your in veg still no big deal. Flower dont go in there.

imo, you'll be ok having only done it once.
You could also get a green light, apparently they reduce any shock (if you have to use it in the night cycle)

As stated above get a green light your plants don't see it.
You'll need to do it again.

You'll be fine

Get a green LED headlamp. I work in my dark rooms ALL the time using one.

Depends a lot on when in the cycle you are, early flower/stretch interruptions seem to cause more bananas than late flower. Still I avoid it at all costs. Hate to fuck up a harvest.

Yes only done it once and that’ll be it and im
Almost in week 4 of flower but yes I’ve read the green light works just don’t have one yet but cheers for all your inputs I thought it would of been fine just doing it the once. Thanks again

he means BANANERS, male flowers , they look like small round balls on a short stalk

ive had no problems interupting dark time, but i grow with sensi seeds or dutch passion genetics. it pays to spend out on the good seeds

Lol. Ok.

hey power went out and was about to be time for darkness anyways so i did not mind. But when the power came back on the timer still had the lights on. maybe 15 seconds at most before i took the timer out of the plug and will setup lights on manually. Lights were off for around 3 hours when they popped back on. Should i just keep my regular on/off time or what ?

not for extendid periods of time, and i was a speed freak at the time and just had to show everyone who wanted to see the lady's but then i wasnt getting the results that i do now, it was many years ago now

you want what was it 14.5 the guy said to 12 hrs of darkness, so work out what time the sun comes out and work back 12-14 hrs from then

Lots of "master master " growers on this thread giving you advice with only months on this Forum. You will be fine, people have lights go out on them /power failures / power surges and come out fine.

5 mins people.

Again masters masters giving advice.

Jc77784 any luck on building some kind of frame work or a sheet of black plastic to cover those plants with yet??
