Do we all agree to give the girls one hour extra sleep tomorrow? Lights out at 5:00a.m on at 6:00p.m.

An extra hour or one less won’t hurt it. Light schedule isn’t that important. I leave mine as is so it’ll be back to the correct time tomorrow.

I just set my light to stay on an hour longer and set it to go off an hour earlier. I needed it to be at the same time due to my schedule.

As long as you don't screw with the sacred number of no less than 12 hours of dark you're fine.

You can leave your lights on for 28 hours, like I did week 4 of flower years ago, and just make sure they get 12 hours of uninterrupted darkness after it and they'll be fine. You can even grow them in 24 hour day/12 hour night intervals they would just take for freaking ever to finish budding and without a weight increase worth the time spent flowering while you could be growing another crop. What a forgiving plant.

True time is irrelevant to them. It's all about hormones and chemical transference.

Plants don't observe time change like that. That's man made. Indoor I leave everything as is just adjust my time an hour sooner
That's what I've been thinking this whole time. The plants don't care what the actual time is. My are lights on 7pm -7am. I just leave everything alone, now they are on 6pm-6am.

In flower, I wouldn't give the plants an extra hour of dark time. In veg, it doesn't matter.

In flower, I wouldn't bc they are on a schedule, and I don't really see the need to. If the time change throws off my internal clock, they might notice too? It's just how I feel...like the plants might see the alteration as a stress.

But I've never tried it to know if it will actually harm them. My mind just feels more comfortable not putting the time change on them.

If it doesn't hurt them, that's good to know.
