I didn't have am auto timer so the lighting schedule was interrupted a few times being delayed by a few hours at a time. Will this negatively effect the process and try to switch to flowering? Ex: 19 hours on 7 hours off then 18 on and 6 off... etc.
Just keep it a little moist, not to wet. When it starts drying give the soil a spray. At this stage your relying on your leaves taking in moisture while the roots start developing.
