Green headlamp for messing in dark period.

I know I shouldn't do it at all but with 60 plus hours of work a week as well as a ton of other shit I am going to have to water and tend a bit during the night shift. Is the green headlights I see on Fleabay gonna hurt anything?


If I HAVE to open the box just to TOSS some water on them is 1 minute of faint light from the adjacent room or a dim red headlamp going to be registered by the plant as an interuption. Would the flash of a camera be noticed? How about a big bright full moon?

whatever anyone else says, the only one who gets to decide if light during 'out' hours is a stress and the person is .... not a person, its the plant. Dont take the risk.

Greenlight is OK'ish but it would have to be the absolute correct spectrum of greenlight to be totally invisible to the plant but its ok for short periods.

moonlight won't hurt the flowering process .. doesnt outdoors as for the others well i've had the odd bit of light enter my tent when they are flowering without ill effects, but stress is stress you always have a chance of hermys


happy growin

i always use green light to check mines out or just to simply adjust and work with them during the lights off. there is no harm what so ever if you use green light. i do it all the time

I have a flashlight app on my phone, set to green. Zero issues on 3 indoor grows. I also don't spend hours in the room either. Just my experience on it.

Personally ive spent so much money and time on my setup I want my plants to get complete darkess throughout the flower period. Cosmic rays would have difficulty getting to my plants . LOL

you don't have to believe me because I'm new, but I'm telling you, the light from a flashlight won't bug the plants at ALL. The wattage isn't enough to do anything at all. These green lights are just a waste of money. If you really feel like you need this special light, then by all means get it, but I go in my grow all the time with a regular mag light and there has never been a problem

My friend, its not about what harms your plant but what benefits your plants. Light in night hours will not benefit your plants so I suggest you minimise the exposure. I too when I started frequented my room in out hours, Ive never hermied either. Its about decipline too, then you can be sure youve done everything possible.

The green flashlight application wass a great idea and will work fine for the limited use its gonna see. Maybe i should quit the JOBS and get rid of the wife and kids. Sure would free up some time and allow me the opportunity to only tend them lights on.That dumbass Weed War series showed the guy tending with a green headlight. Those clowns want to keep weed regulated so they can make money. Gotta believe most people smoke to get high not treat the palsy.. It does sound better to call it medicine but its always going to be dope to me.

ive spent like 2 hours in the dark with the green eye led headlamp. spraying plants with mighty wash to kill all them mites during flower
