I am 1 week away from harvest with NL 5. I fucked up and left the light in the closet on for what should have been the dark period. Thats the 40w energy saving bulb in the closet not the HID. Its now time for lights on. should I put the timer back 12 hrs to give a 12 hr break now or stick with the normal schedule as the light thats was left on was such low power?

Run the dark period now for 12 or 24 hours to get back on schedule. Do not let her go 24 hours in light. Goodluck

You shouldn't have any problems from that after doing what is told above either.....

It happens from time to time! Every once in awhile, I'll leave 4, four ft. 65K floro's on in my boom. I just shut them off when I find them the next day and let things go! NEVER had a problem with my plants from that.....Your good!

just keep running them normal

a lot of people do 1 to 2 weeks of longer days or even 24 hour light to get yield up 2 to 6 weeks before chop

one day won`t do fuck all I say go for more growth plus no need to mess with the timers or anything... just leave it as it, they should be fine if it don`t happen again

Thanks for the quick responses! I have gone with above advice and plan to give them a 24 hour dark period after their 12hrs HID + 12 HR 40w bulb.with times as they were.

If anyone advocates going for the 12 hour dark period rather than the 24, please let me know, and your reasoning behind this.

Reasoning behind the 24 was to keep 'day' and 'night' at the same time of day for the plants.
