Ya timers are a definate at about $5, but that being said..., IMO, if your only shutting them down for 4-5 hours your not stressing them as nothing will change the physiology of the plant until daylight reaches closer to the 11 to 12 hours of darkness. But yepper, by the ticker and good luck.

its not the amount of time..its the irregular light cycle
I thought, or rather was under the impression, that it was when the dark cycle was interupted, I didnt even consider the light cycle interuption as a hermie cause. Thanks for the 411

theres no set science to it really...any type of stress can run you the risk of turning one hermie
