I've had to do that before and it didnt seem to stress it. Just shut your lights off at 6am and turn on at 9pm. Just make sure it gets the extra 3 hours in the darkso im currently in week 2 of flowering. due to high costs of electricity, i was wanting to change my light cycle from 6pm-6am to 9pm-9am, would this be a bad idea if i just made sure the light was off until 9pm and then change the timer? i understand messing with the light cycle can fuck it up, but i just might wait until after harvest.
can anyone comfirm this? im doing a side-by-side experiment so i dont want to screw this up. not saying i dont believe you man, i just want more people to say so.I've had to do that before and it didnt seem to stress it.

Nah its cool...i wouldnt recommend if you didnt had to but i was in that situation because of a job at work so it was a emergency but i didnt notice any stresscan anyone comfirm this? im doing a side-by-side experiment so i dont want to screw this up. not saying i dont believe you man, i just want more people to say so.
I had my flower room set up on 12/12 from noon to midnight and had to reverse it to come on at midnight and off at noon last year. I just let them stay dark for 24 hours and reset my timers. No stress associated problems. And I have 160 plants in there. Not a single hermie and yield was not affected. So I'm pretty sure you will be ok.can anyone comfirm this? im doing a side-by-side experiment so i dont want to screw this up. not saying i dont believe you man, i just want more people to say so.
I found my first ladybug the other day. Went straight into the flower roomI just chopped 40 plants a week and a half ago (netted 22.5 zips dry) and it looks like I'll have to do it again in in another 10 to 14 days....it's getting to be like a fulltime job, but the benefits are greathere is my updated pics of my perpetual grow for this week. Also thru in a pic of the maternity ward w/ moms and newborns (clones)
While I was taking these pics this morning I found those f*****g spider mites are back again. Man, once you get them, you never get rid of them little sap sucking bastards.....you can only get them under control to a point. Since I run a tight spaced SOG of 80 plants in each 3 x 8 table.... organic insecticides and oil base sprays and pyreth foggers won't penetrate my jungle I guess I order up some lady bugs again. I used them last year and had pretty good luck with them. Gonna get the qt bag of 9000 ladybugs. Overkill for a 12 x 12 room but they are about 50 bucks with overnight air.
Man sucks about those spider mites, I hate spring time Lol. I gotta question for you tho if you dont mind. What kind of weight are you pulling from 4x4 area? I been thing about maybe trying some SOGI just chopped 40 plants a week and a half ago (netted 22.5 zips dry) and it looks like I'll have to do it again in in another 10 to 14 days....it's getting to be like a fulltime job, but the benefits are greathere is my updated pics of my perpetual grow for this week.

My ebb and flo SOG tables are 3' x 8' and hold 80 plants. I harvest 1/2 of a table (40 plants) every 14 to 18 days. My last harvest netted me 22.5 ozs (dry weight) from 1/2 of the table (3' x 4'= 12 sq. ft.) and I have 3 x 600w digital ballast over each table (overkill I know) Hope this answers your question my brotherMan sucks about those spider mites, I hate spring time Lol.

Thanks for da rep doc. I'd love to shut it down and cleanse the room top to bottom but it would set me back 2 months to get back in full swing again. I'll just deal with it with the ladybugs and get them under control again like I did last year.Sorry to hear about the mites tat! ive gotten rid of mine using eco senses and alot of cleaning. They're lil BITCHES!!! But what a lovley grow space you have, + rep dat shit!
Thanks man yea that helps..Im averaging 2 ounces a plant from 3 gallon buckets (my record is 3.5 oz), I been thinkin lots about getting another 600 so I'll do a side by side and see which is best for meMy ebb and flo SOG tables are 3' x 8' and hold 80 plants.
