Help! Timer problem.
RichBud5
started grow question 5y ago
My timer on 18-6 broke and i'm not sure if the girls had 24 hours for the past couple days... by putting them back into 18-6 will that trick them into flower? Hope not. Thanks :)

Nope, theyll be fine. They wont start flowering until they have 12 hrs or less of light. Good luck!
