Ok so … My cycle of 18/6 starts at 6am every morning im at the end of my 7th week in veg. Woke up this morning to a power outage. Im freaking out a little and not sure what my next move is. Im almost 2 hours past the time my tent was supposed to power on. @BobbyDigital@PurpNGold74@yoshi@KoolHandLuke
Wasn’t sure who to tag for help but i follow you guys posts a lot for info.
It takes about 10 day to transition to flower , so you are alright. If you can put them in front of a window till the power come back on . Boil a big pot of water for some humidity.
You can also leave them in the dark for the extra time. They won’t mind. I changed my light cycle from 7p-7a to 7a-7p by just adding the time to the dark period.
Also airflow! Being in additional dark is more humidity. I know youre still in veg but still in 90% RH in the dark with stagnant air is a risk Im not willing to take. Even if its passive, crack a door and a window and let mother nature give you a hand.
I’m out of likes, just had one thing to add. Same thing happened to me, power went out for about 30 hours.
If you have mechanical timers they’ll need to be reset. I got myself some digital ones with battery backup so I don’t have to worry about that anymore.
Put a dewalt battery powered fan in there to exhaust the room. Weather outside is 20 degrees but put a portable propane heater in there to keep temps up and i also opened the windows about an inch just to let fresh air in. Room is at 70 degrees and humidity is holding at 35. Hopefully that gets me through until power is back on. I have 5 spare 60 volt batteries on hand for the fan and a spare tank of propane.
Ok folks so my power is back on. My 6 hours off is from midnight to 6am. Should i just go about my business like the outage never happened and power down at midnight like normal? Or should i do something else?
Business as usual. They’ll keep rolling right along as if the 6 hour break was a cloudy day. Same off time as before and lights on as it was previously
