I need to move my cab to another location for a day or two.

If I need to disrupt the cycle, is it best to disrupt the dark hours or the light hours? I have it timed to go dark at 12am-6am, and it's going to be hard to move it during that time frame, but will do it if I need to.

any tips or recommendations would be great. thanks.

Well, is the cab completely lightproof? No light leaks?

Uninterrupted dark periods are very crucial in the flowering stage. It's not as important (but still recommended) during the vegetative stage, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Hope this helped,

Regarding which cycle is better to break during veg cycle, I'm not sure. If they were my plants, I would prefer to expose them to light during the dark period rather than put them in darkess during the light period (this only applies during vegging). A shortened light period could possibly trigger an unwanted pre-mature flower response.

I'm interested to see what others think, I'm not a pro.

peace,

joe.
