Light timer failing ON during flower..
In case anyone ever wondered what will happen when lights are on 24 hours during flower for an extended period, here you go.
What happened was the timer controlling the 2 T-5 panels failed to ON and I didn't notice or figure it out for about 5-6 days. I noticed temps in the room were 4-5 degrees warmer during lights off, but didn't think it was light related. A few day later I start seeing the plants growing all funky. Luckily I went out to my garden sometime before lights on and discovered it. This was in about week 5.. As you can see in the pictures, they all started stretching again. I was worried about hermi's, but none and a good thing. What's difficult is estimating how long finish is going to take now.. Kind of like they reverted to week 2 during the lights on period. Based on the original schedule, these should be in week 9.. Flipped on 1/1/13. I think I'm looking at probably 6 more weeks.. maybe a little less on the indica's. We'll see.
If your curious to strain - all grown from fem seeds.. Utopia Haze, Kosher Kush and Kushsage
Anyone else have any experience with this?
