Grow Room Lights out.

[Scooba1232]

Ok so I forgot to pay my light bill yesterday and the lights on my tent were off for about 18 hrs. 6 of these hrs, the light was supposed to be off. Should I just take this as a loss and start over?or will I be fine? Any comments will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

you'll be just fine. a day or two of lights out is no big deal. i've dealt with several power outages and had no issues. the only problem is if i'm not home when it happens and the timers get all out of whack when it comes back on.

the main thing with photo plants is not to disturb their night time. the lights can be off for days and they will be ok. but if the lights start coming on during their night time, they may freak out, depending on how sensitive the strain is and how long this occurs.

with autoflowering plants, a lot of them can deal with 24/0, so the cycle getting off isn't as big of a deal, you may just lose a little growth while the power is out. just get them back on the same light cycle and you should still be fine.

don't scrap the grow!

you should be fine, dont panic, see how the plants react before making any harsh decisions, i cant see it affecting them a great deal aslong as it doesnt happen regular, peace out:Sharing One:

You'll be fine. One interruption like that won't effect your plants.

Like Muddy said, you'll be fine.
When I started my photos in my T5 tent, I didn't realize that all my lightbulbs had burnt out. I knew a couple had but I checked on the plants a good day or two after the lights went out. I replaced them and they are still fine, threw out lots of preflowers lol but still in veg.
