I have plants of all sizes, clones, 4", 1 gallon pots 5 gallon bags in veg 24/7 and then my flowers 12/12 all soil. Power went out last week and I had no generator. some plants I moved to the kitchen where I have good window light most plants stayed in the dark.
I am surprised at how good they faired for the amount of time. I got power back on yesterday all the green looks healthy even some new growth. It was dark and it wassssss cold.
I had just put some cuttings in rock whole cubes thos are the ones I am most worried about.

I will keep you posted on the out come in the next few weeks.

I think it was jorge cervantes's 3rd dvd where he showed plants that were without light for a week and talked about them. I think he said they recover in 1-2 weeks.

I would say they should be fine...the cuttings should be fine...they don't really need too much light until they get roots...the only thing to watch out for on the cuttings would be powdery mildew.

A couple of days ago I took some cuttings.

I was stoned and forgot to put the humidity dome back on after I sprayed them before I went to bed.. :dunce:

They looked really bad. I mean dropping all the way down the Rapid Rooters.

Amazingly they came back, :joint::peace:

Very resilient plants.

Good Luck :leaf:

They don't call it a weed for nothing! It WILL try to survive at all costs! Most people intervene and finish them off a lot of the time!

What kind of generator did you buy?

I have two, but the one I like is my Honda e2000. They are very quiet and can run all night on a gallon and a half of gas. :leaf: It puts out a true 16.6 amps.
