Little update. Looks like we have a hurricane coming this week. Fingers crossed we don’t lose power!

Good luck and my suggestion for the power cycle issue. Buy some flashlights and have at least 2 (turn the 2nd one on a hour after so it’s the fail safe ) and check your plants every 6-12 hours and replace the batteries on a cycle like that

Yeah batteries may be a little expensive but tuning your whole crop to irregular light cycle for days and what not is worse than the cost of the batteries.

Anyways good luck and hopefully your not losing any power

Excellent suggestion. Unless of course you have a generator. But with several flashlights it will keep the photoperiod intact. Its just a pita to have to remember to turn em on and off but it works!!!!

^ well if your phones still on if have a simple kitchen timer make sure it’s 12/12 everyday

Even thou their flashlights . It’s just to keep the light cycles .

Thanks guys for your concern, I have LED light bars and a deep cycle marine battery on standby just in case but haven’t lost power yet. Didn’t want to run a generator where my grow room is and rise suspicions

All is well so far. Trimmed the fan leaves off the plant in cloning from this time and there is limbs trying to grow from the fan leaves. Never seen that before.....

Clipped clones yesterday. Started flipping the grow room this morning.

Excited to see what’s to come. Next time I believe I’m going for the sea of green. Decided to just mainline with 4 tops instead of 8 due to the size of my grow room. I think it was a good choice.
