Just had a major earthquake where I live and have no power and sounds like its going to be that way for another day or so, So really just wondering how much harm could possibly be done to my girls. I have some in week 2 of vege and a few more at week four of flowering:-(

Well, personally I'd put some type of lantern in with the veg plants to keep them from creating flowering hormones, but that's just me.

Yeah I'm in good old shaky NZ, Just had a good walk round my place and its pretty wankered so im going to have to move them all somewhere else me thinks as im going to have to have the place inspected and have all manner of tradesmen round, bit of a shame as they were all booming along, ah well could be a lot worse i guess.

If you cannot find some hand-led lights with batteries, a few candles will work ok for a day or so.
Make sure:

-you have a cool temperature near the plants and dont burn anything
-leave the ventilation open and try to suck air right above the candles(so not to have the fumes concetrated itno your gro room)

Best of luck to you on the recovery effort, seriously. Natural disasters suck balls, no matter where you are.
Pardon my ignorance, but how's the weather in general in your locale? I take it moving them outdoors for a day or two isn't an option?

Cheers for the advice team, sounds like I may not get power in my suburb for some time yet so put the girls in flower outdoors and gifted the ones in veg to a mate, a bit sad after all my hard work and they were looking mint but got bigger things to worry about at the mo..
