Power went out about 72 hours ago I have 3 plants under a 150watt hps. In a bathroom. I've just been opening the blindes on the small window in there so it is gettin a small amount of light for about 12 hours a day. But not very much at all. And also I'm supposed to water tomorow with no fertz but I think I will skip watering since its been cold also without power. Also I had 3 clone around 2 weeks old. That were on 24hr floros. I have just had them close to the fire ,gettin window light as well. Should I be worried? Cuz I am. does anyone no what else i should do? Has it happened to anyone? And any facts or thoughts oon how this will effect growth, health and yield? Please and thank u

My light went out for 3 days during veg and they were fine. I set up candles to maintain the photo period and that seemed to be fine. Probably a bit more finicky in flower though.

why did your power go off? whens its going back on the plants in flowering should be ok if the lights go back on soon It will affect yield if their off for to long she may hemmie due to stress which would be gutting so I hope not good luck man

Hemmie? I have heard about this thing after a lot of stress. But never worried about it until now ofcourse. But I thought it was hermie? Or something like that. Any knowledge on this stress caused thing or any threads please post. I'm ultra unaware haha

What strains are you growing??, personally from the same experience it did nothing for the flowering plants but strain may dictate any adverse affect. If anything it may assist the plants in getting their shit on to produce more trichrome, bud and goodness in general. Hope it works out for ya!!

damn bro.. 7 days.. rough, i remember one time an area around where i used to live had that happen for 5 days, all the gorcery stores and restaurants lost their food.. trippy.. but as long as they're in veg and you were letting light in every day you should be ok.. may have started to flip, but will continue back into veg as long as you get them back under 18-22 h of light!! good luck, you should do a grow journal..

continue as normal...and pay close attention for the next 2 weeks for signs of hermies..after that you should be free n clear. prolly wouldnt hurt to buy a small generator if you can to avoid this n the future!
