power outage.....

[hockey4848]

I have not had power for about 12 hours now. Temps are around 66 as of now, but it s very cold here and if I don't get power soon they will continue to drop. I have my mom room on 24/0, should i be worried about them going hermie?

Naw man you should be good if the power comes back on soon, do you have a generator?

I wish.

At what temperature should I start to become concerned at? Right now it is around 66 down there. It is 15 degrees outside today, and with my heater not running due to the power outage...my grow room is only going to become colder until the power gets turned back on..

No, dont worry. think about how cold it is outside towards the end of the outdoor growing season. So yeah, relax my friend.

under 40 has a chance of hurting them, but probally wont. It's frost thats the real killer, not cold, which you dont have to worry about cuz your inside.

Thanks guys, making me feel a little better. A few months ago I lost power for about 6 hours, a few days later one of my moms went hermie....I am having trouble believing it was in fact the power outage....but what else could it of been?

that was probably just a coincidence. it might have been stressed out from other things

I was having heat issues at the time, 93+ temps back in the summer. Is that hot enough to make it hermie?

could have been high enough temps but ive had temps in the low 90s with lights on and mid 80s with lights off and had no hermie problems.

What are some of the reasons plants go hermie?
