Switching hours on a flowering Plant? Will they Hermie?

My buddy owns a dispensary and has too many plants and wants me to take them. Well I have a 1000w thst has 3 plants under it now. I do a perpetual grow so I am always harvesting. The issue is, his lights are on 8am-8pm. That is when my lights are on. You think this will hermie the plant? They are going to have to go with 24hrs of light today. I believe they have only been flowering less than a week. I get them at 7am, they are 2 Northern Lights, Jacks Cleaner, OG Kush. I already have White Fire, 2 Afgoos, Jack Herer!

give the plant an extra 12 hours of DARK then add them to your room at your next lights on and it should not hurt it. if you just add the plants to your room without the extra dark period you will interrupt the dark period and stress the plant.

Sounds good^^^^ I did that and no problems. Should be good to go!

What if I cant give them the extra dark cycle? How about that curveball?

As the other guy said, its MUCH better to have flowering plants get the extra night cycle than a 24 hour period of light. Find a closet somewhere, clean it out and put them in there. Shouldn't be too much of a problem.

it wont KILL them to have extra day period, but it will shock them out of producing their flowering hormones for a while, and depending on what it is you are getting and how prone they are to hermie, you MAY end up with a hermie. If i were you i would find a closet or big boxes to put them in and give them an extra dark cycle...

I'd also go with the extra dark cycle vs extra light. Plants won't react in a negative way with a little extra dark period.

Hey guys, they had to be tranferred during the day. What if they get 18hrs of light, and 18hrs of darkness, then they will be on my schedule? Thanks guys. I was suppose to have those plants by now. I think he is waiting till 11am

I got 2 northern Lights and a Magic Bean

either way they will be fine m8

Here they are!





The 2 Northern lights are in the back left, the Mabic Bean is on the right. They werent very well cared for. A lot of foliage on the bottom of the stock, had to do a shit load of trimming. This guy did not spend anytime with these girls, also they were dry as a bone. So I trimmed em all out, staked em up, gave em a good watering. Lights out at 7pm, Long day for these girls. The 2 in front are Afgoos, one is 4 weeks into flower the other is week 3. The new ones are a week or week and half. I can see pistilss on some. I would assume they will take some time to heal and then boom, They will take off, pray no hermie!

you will be fine, as I've did it a few times my self
