Visiting the girls during the dark period

[marso5050]

For some reason, I had to check the plants during the "night" (5th week in flowering)
I've read once in one of the threads that green light does not disturb the plants in the darkness, so I used a flashlight with a green filter.
Is that correct ?

I have read that cannabis is 'blind' to green lightwaves, but we don't know how accurate your filter color is, and, green is right next to blue on the colorscale ... I would visit my plants in the daylight hours, instead ... :smokin:

Everything I have read about this: says use green party lights and keep visits under 15 minutes and not too often.

Checking your plants once in a while when the lights are off will not/should not cause any probs.
I can't tell you how mayt times I have checked my plants with a reg. old flashlight with zero ill effects. Just don't get in the habit of doing it everyday. Light leaks, where there is a constant small bit of light entering your room for hours on end is where you run into probs.
I grew outdoors for years and there was lights on outside all the time-the plants always had some form of light on them, and nothing happened to them. No herms, etc...
But better safe then sorry.

i have used a green light many times to check my plants in their dark period and had no ill afects.

just bought a green lightbulb that was meant to be used in a disco light and used that.
