P.O.S timer

Question .. my timer switch got bumped to the on postion and I caught it half way thought the dark cycle ..do you think it will mess my babies up ? There's some almost done and half that's just started flowering

IME if it was one time, and only for a couple hours they should be fine. I've had a couple crappy timers die of old age over the years and leave em in dark for 1 1/2 days in the middle of flowering with no ill effects but a touch a yellowing. also had one stick on on for a little over 24 hours and never noticed any signs of stress or anything. Again this was my experience and You never know but my guess is they'll be fine.....LL

Thanks LL .. I caught it about 6 hours ..so that means 18 hours of light..guess ill just keep a close eye on them .

They will be fine.... I have had much worse happen with no ill effects too...

Thanks Qman..I just taped the switch so hopefully take care of that

You will be fine! A trick that I use in my grow area to let me know the lights are on is to place a small radio in the room --- using same plug as lights. Music on --- lights on! Hope it helps a little.

I have 3 timers and all got from the local hydro store ..I think the on and off button just wasn't tight but a little gorilla ductape took care of it...thanks bro
