No light ?

Hi,

I'm currently 9.5 weeks into flowering and my ballast has decided to give up.

I've ordered another but it will take a few day to arrive. Will my plants be ok in the dark all that time ? or should I chop what I could now ?

I could turn the lightbulb on in the room but its only an energy saving 60 watt light, will that do any good ?

thanks

I would just leave them off tbh// How far off being done are they? If your ballast will be here tomorrow then just carry on ur 12/12 from then..

how secluded is ur back garden bcuz maybe you could just put the pots outside or maybe a window sill just for the
time being...

could you just run in some CFL'S for the time being?

If I put them in my back garden they would more than likely get stolen

Might just leave the light off for the time being and hope for the best


Thanks

what strain are you growing

They'll be okay if they sit in the dark, although it's not optimum, of course. At 9+ weeks it's too late for them to go herm on ya and hurt anything, so i wouldn't worry about it.

Big bud and crystal

I never grew Big Bud, but have been growing Crystal for a couple grows, and it's always done at about 9 weeks or so. Is it close?

yes very close, if my ballast isnt here today I may just chop
