Light stress during the night time
Girl_Scoutstarted grow question 3y ago
Question to outdoor growers. The auto flowering plant is growing in the garden, and sometimes there is light on during night time, can it cause light stress? It's usual light bulb, 40w, in some distance

Autoflowering plants do NOT get stressed from having lights on at night
Since they do NOT depend on light schedules to flower, they don't show stress from light pollution
This is one of their advantages for home growers
For example, indoors they can be grown with up to 24 hours of uninterrupted light (although it's not the most recommended)

Autoflowers are successfully grown under 24/7 lights indoors - it's not ideal (plants need SOME rest) but it can be done - so a little light during the night outdoors won't phase them at all. All my autoflowers grow indoors under 20/4 light/dark throughout their lives...
Relax - autoflowers are just going to do their thing! Good luck!

Temperature here reaches 32°C-89°F and it's not so windy, Im scared it could burn the tiny plant, I have been keeping both plants under a white mosquito net that makes the light less hot and they get some direct light untill 10 am (see pic)

Lamp to Plant distance - Outdoor.If growing outside, what is the best way to calculate lamp (star) to plant distance for the journal each week based on time of year and rotation of our lovely planet? I am being facetious, of course! It's just a fun question for you all. Hope everyone out there good!

- I have a greenhouse ceiling that covers 50% of the terrace
- should I grow the plants always under this ceiling, or if it is beneficial to expose the plants to direct sunlight?
- If so, how old the plant has to be to expose it to the sunlight? I don't want to burn my seedling

Starting photos indoors for June transplantWant to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwiseSetup. Lighting

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light6y ago

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growingHi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing.
Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering.
However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight)
Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?
