Power outage dark! How long can my girls take this?

[Neo-Hippie]

Power outage at 10:00am, no power till 12:00pm (Hopefully!)
How long can my plants take this dark without dying? I have plants in all phases of development (perpetual harvest). What can I do to help them recover? HELP!!

2 whole hours without any light? Dude you might as well chop em down and start over from scratch.

lol.

do nothing. it will be all right.


I losts power for 10 days and 11 nites in freezing sub zero temps, and all was well.

so I think you will be all right.

 

[reckon]

no problem,..........you can stop freaking out now

ok the ONLY thing you need to worry about, is the vegging plants that are NOT flowering,.....if you have, say 5 or 6 DAYS with no light, some strains will start to show flowers.

all it takes is a flash of light for a minute, a couple times a day with a really bright LED flashlight to prevent this.


smoke, be calm, no worries

Thank you mt friends, I needed the reassurance! Lights just went back on at 11:45. I just paniced as things are going so well, and I have so much invested..... I'm sure you understand. Thank you again for the advice, you folks rule!!

had a 2 hour black out this week...the smell arrived shortly after the fans went out...stinky !!

You're fine.... just keep the light schedule as it was when the power comes back on. It won't do anything as long as it's only happened once.

guys, today I had a power otuage of 7 hours. started after 5 hours of light.

The things Iam worried is that the plants were without fans for that long.

Its a 4x4 tent, day 44 12/12 4 sensi stars in full bloom... imagine the smell of that thing.

What badly could happen to the plants? mostly regarding the no ventilation thing.

they were thirsty after the outage. I fixed the timer, just switched off for today. thanks in advance

Shouldn't be a problem if it only lasts a day or two.

Water as needed. Plants are resilient as long as it's not interrupting cycle numerous times.

The only thing maybe a lil bit affectec could be the biggest plant and most resinous, it wasn't that resinous today but maybe Iam biased trying to look what its not there lol. so far so good.
