Lights Timer

Can I get a 12/12 or 16/8 timer at Lowes or Home Depot? If so, what are they called and where are they in the store?

I think doing 12/12 without a timer is going to be a bitch. I would have to be their all the time and wake up when I don't want to.

I have seen one on the internet I think, that you plug all the lights into and then program it's little box.

Any help is appreciated! Provide websites where I could buy them also!

Dude-

There are not specific timers, such as 12/12, just timers. You have to set them. I just bought one at Home Depot 3 days ago for $7.99. You turn a dial to set the current time, then there are little clicky things that you pull out to move and push in to set. They set the 'turn on' time and 'turn off' time. The one I bought can do 2 on and off sessions per day, but I only need 1, and so do you. Good luck growin'.

you can get a time at any of those places or menards. i got mine at menards when you do buy get 2 just incase your timer takes a dump on you then you have a back up ready. if you can find a heavy duty timer get it. found mine at menards about $10. with any timer you set the times they aren't pre set. gl on your grow may you be cursed with many buds.

Which ever one you get, make sure it isn't a dusk to dawn one. Your lights will never shut off. Also if you go to Lowes, bring a pocket knife with you. Just cut a slice in the packaging, and find an associate that you know, or is cool, and have them mark it down half for it being open.
