Is the moon considered a light leak?

Very simple. The genetic trigger for plants to autoflower does not transfer too 100 % of offspring, atleast not without years of proper breeding to stabilize the genetics.

Just like if you cross a purple budded plant with a green budded plant. Only a certain percentage of plants will be purple or green, and another percentage will have characteristics of both.

It’s very common for auto seeds to produce individual plants from a batch which won’t auto.
Yeah I can see that. That makes sense to me. So is there anyway to know that you have autoflower seeds. I guess not unless you plant them and they start flowering under 24 hour light?

On a note related to the OP. The moon is not a light leak. I ran my garden for years with the door to the flower room lifted about 18 inches to allow air flow from my veg room. The flower room was no were near dark in the dark period, but none of the light coming in was directly hitting the plants it was bouncing off the floor. I never had any issues with herms or Revegging. Plants need useable light to photosynthesis which the moon doesn’t effectively provide and neither will a pin hole in a tent.

I’ve also seen plants begin to flower outside just from extended periods of overcast weather. Which tells me they need a decent amount of useable light to stay in veg.

Apologies op. I learned a few things though. Thank you.
 
I could actually use some advice from some of you pros @Wizzlebiz, @Thundercat, @DarkWeb or anyone else in this forum if you guys have the time to look at it. I posted in a forum called - Leave It or Chop It - about a plant that I have outside right now. It has nothing to do with light leaks im just wanting some advice about its condition.

You know what. That was straight up wrong of me.

I'm having a rough day over here.

Anyway my point is simply that you asked for accounts and battled me all the way on it and when I provided you with accounts you basically reverted to no substance response. Im sorry man. That's just how I saw it go down.

Again my bad for my former post. I am better than that and all of you deserve better than responses like that.
There was no substance in your accounts you provided...those are pictures of words.....plagiarism.....but not intentional.....I get it.

Homie. I'm not google. At this point please go research it yourself and then come back and let's have a discussion. And I mean really read about it from many different account of it happening.

makes more sense for sure. If im wrong that's fine. A man who can't admit when he's wrong isn't much of a man.

But why did my auto reveg when left under a lamp post at night?
That light might have a spectrum that just pissed off your plant? As I'm sure you know other things could play a part like heat stress.

I agree. But with this particular plant there was no heat stress. It was march thru mid May here. Temps were very nice.

Thundercat answered you. You can get photoperiod behavior from autos. As you line breed to strengthen the ruderalis genetics you can breed most of it out. But every so often you will get a throwback even in a stabilized lineage.

Stop posting nonsense. If you don't know or can't provide real info..,.dont
Stop being rude because someone provided exactly what you asked for. You called it plagiarism yet I didn't claim those words as mine.

I'm bowing out of this conversation because you are just attempting to make my day worse. I apologized for my reaction.

I'm done. Enjoy your day.
