Hey guys,
So I still use one of those old intermatic timers, that have two markers and you adjust them by screwing a pin onto a metal pinwheel that spins past and flips switches.
Somehow the on pin became slightly loose, but would only slide slightly each night before catching again and staying there.
So sometime over hte past two weeks my cycle has slowly gone from 11.5 hrs light to 20hrs light. I saw it in the plants, but thought it was over nitrogen as I just changed food brands this cycle too. They've started having elongated buds and throwing single leaflets in the buds. NOT happy, it's a medical grow for my own supply and it's . .of a scale that took hundreds of hours of work and thousands in supplies etc. not happy.
Eitherway, I'm usually on/off at 9.5pm and 10am but lastnight noticed the issue (after trimming 2000w of plants that were foxtailing weirdly) and saw the timer pegs. I turned off the lights, left em in the dark for 13 hours and turned it back on.
Thinking to just keep it at 11.5 liight and back to the regular schedule as mentioned above.
Pulled Banana's on GDP's and WaterMelons and BlueBerry Which all seem to be fast photoperiod responders.
I was going to start the flush today so. . yeah timing's not good. The MEndo was looking to be 2lb's a light + now it's all crowned and tossing leaf instead of fattening up. .
Reccomendations?
