I didn't reset timer when I put new plants into grow cycle about 2 weeks ago. 2 are stretching and have white flowers on top 2 others are not streching but have the white flowers (LED lights).
I set timer back to 18 on and 6 off. Is that the right thing to do at this point ? Should I top them maybe ?
It was a newby mistake so not sure what to do about it. Any advise is appreciated... Thanks guys , glad to have this forum to turn to.
You have 2 choices... revert to flowering and have very bushy and funky looking plants, then re-flower them OR Keep them going on the 12-12 schedule and get a little bit out of the deal and then start over, which might be a better idea due to the time lost during transition from flower back to vegg (at least 2 weeks) and reversing the vegg into flowering (another week-10 days)... so you have nearly 3 or 4 weeks tied up in stalled growth times. A 3rd option, depending on where you live, would be to put them outside where they will naturally revert to vegg growth. Then let them flower and harvest in fall... all the while growing a new set indoors!
I agree with one drop, stay the course. They all look very healthy. They also look to me to be more then 2 weeks into flower. Anyway, have a great grow.
I'm halfway through making seeds on a 12-12 start to finish. I think I'lI try an experiment 13-11 start to finish. I love the short fast mini plants. No need to bend over to water, and trimming is easy.

Actually, 18/6 is not ideal as each strain (Indica/Sativa) have much lower light needs, beyond which pay little to no yield dividends. Most growers use 18/6 because that's the way its been done for decades. Search engines are your friend to learn actual horticultural science

Thanks for all the help and input. I went back to 12 / 12. Gonna take it as a lesson learned. I have some new seeds coming in and start over. I'm a little bummed but I'm learning and I'm enjoying being a grower so... Cheers
