Thanks #forcedfriend! It's growing like a Canadian :). Nothing wrong with Ren and Stimpy at all, I just have a few years on you so it might be generational, and I wasn't watching much TV in the early 90s. I don't watch much now but still a lot more than I used to o_O.

I'm sure we could use you at the JH thread. It's almost all military talk now so it's beyond my knowledge. Plants needed!

Seriously man im so jealous of the AK! And your location! Been trying to talk the wife into moving somewhere warmer forever!:cool:. Plus ive been all over the world but never to the west coast.
Hope everybody has a great saturday!

Thanks Van! And I appreciate you reaching out to @SofaKing Dope as well.


EMERGENCY LIGHT QUESTION!
I went out to eat tonight and didn't get home until midnight. Lights go out at 8:30pm but back on at 11:30pm. Usually I have moved the AK by then, but I couldn't tonight. So that means it got 3 hours dark and 30 minutes of light before I moved it into the dark box.

QUESTION: Do I ignore the 30 minutes of light and take it out in the morning like I usually do, or do I leave it in the box until noon so it gets 12 hours of darkness?

Please let me know when you wake up tomorrow so I'll know what to do!

Thanks!
 
I think I understand what your saying. If they are far into flower, say and you got interrupted in the middle of your dark cycle with a half hour of light? I'd go 12 straight hours of dark after that, before I'd go to light cycle. 30 minutes of white light is plenty for a plant to start their daytime mode.

IF that's what you asked... I've had to do that afew times myself.

Thanks Norcali! That is what I meant. Penny's thought was not to worry about it and stick with the original timing.

Damn, I wanted a consensus!
 
You can think of it this way,,, when your growing outdoors and want your plants to stay in veg. When the suns not out long enough to keep plants in veg, they interrupt the night cycle with 20 mins of white light, which is enough to keep them vegging. So 20 minutes does something.

Now I can't say for sure, whats right, but I do know if I hit plants with 30 minutes of light while in their night cycle it could hermie your girls. Take people who live close to the equator, they have close to 12/12 all the time. They only way they can get plants to veg outdoors is throw alittle white light on them in the middle of the night. Till they got the size they want. And flower mode.

Myself,,, I'd call it a short day of 30 minutes. Then if you want to get back to your regular time, adjust slowly, like every other night add or subtract 10 - 15 minutes, till ya gt back.

I probly would go dark for 12 because i think it would totally eliminate any chance of hermie. Might slow her for a day or 2 but more dark is always better than extra light imho. I lost power for 4 days during week 6 flower and left the room dark for 70 hours before going back to 12/12 with 0 problems.
Saying that i think youll be fine either way you choose. thats a hardy ass plant (clearly decent genetics) one little anomoly after such a pampered life shouldnt make a big difference.

Hey i really apprieciate it Van! Same to you. I could be wrong but i feel like you may have mentioned somewhere your a fellow masshole aswell?, im on the south shore.
:peace:
 
I’m sure it’ll be good Shed! What did you end up doing. I would’ve done the extend to 12hours, then a short day and back to normal. Curious what you decided.

I think I’ve read that to use the short burst of light to change the cycle, you’d need to do it repeatedly. Hopefully that’s true and an isolated event like this won’t even cause a bump.

I'd say stay on schedule. 30 min. Isn't going to flaw a plant with a good stance. If it was a week plant it might effect it but not that AK.

I want to start by saying a huge THANK YOU to all for jumping in with your thoughts on the matter :thanks:

It's been a really busy weekend so I won't have a weekend update until tomorrow, but let me tell you how this story turned out...

I had originally planned to go with 12 hours of dark until Penny said not to worry about it. Then Norcali suggested doing 12 hours of dark and getting it gradually back on the regular schedule. That doesn't work because I can't move the plant when I'm not here. So I was going to go with Penny's suggestion and assume everything would be fine.

Well, I had a terrible night's sleep last night and didn't really fall back to sleep for the night until 5:30 am. Guess when I woke up...11:30 am! Guess the regular schedule was out :rolleyes:. So I took it out of the dark box after the 12 hours of darkness after all, but it's now immediately back to the regular schedule of 8:30pm-8:30am. It just had a short day today. Like Sofa said, it might slow it down a little having missed 4 hours of daylight, but whatcha gonna do? I'll tell ya what...plan on spending 4 hours at dinner and put the plant in the shed at 7 next time (or make the lights not come on until much later) :).

Thanks again for all your help. Y'all are great :circle-of-love:

Now I have to make more capsules for my dad. No rest for the weary :thumb:
