Breaking light cycle during flowering
versace_growstarted grow question 5 years ago
Does breaking the dark cycle after half an hour of dark will stress the plant? I just opened the box 30 minutes after the light went down during the first week of flowering. Can this make my plants hermaphrodite?

You probably won't have any issues from one time, but don't make a habit of it. Def no pics once she is out, do that right immediately before/after lights if you need the flash or something.
Be extra careful early in flower, you still have months to take care of the ladies. If you did stress her and throws nanners early it means more time for the seeds to fill your buds. I've bumped timers in week two and unknowingly grown buds that were totally seeded right in their core. Not the end of the world, but not ideal.

No, I advice you not to do that, but one time will not matter. Light leaks are what you need to worried about

I couldn’t tell you for definite as I’ve only ever grown two plants but neither hermied when I did it and I did it a bunch of times to take photos, however I’d wait for someone else to shine light😅✌️

When Should I Consider More CO2?I flower my plants in a mylar lined box, roughly 2' deep by 4' wide by maybe 6' tall, using two 300W Mars Hydro LEDs.
With that amount of light on the plants, would you recommend more light, or CO2 supplementation, and if so how much?

Humidity too low, any ways getting 60% without a humidifier?I am struggling to get my humidity high enough as it keeps trying to fall to 30-40% and I'd like it to be above 60% - any good tips how to do this and how much it will affect the plant? Laundry hanging near tent gives ~10%+, I've also tried misting some water every few hours.

Ist mehr Licht besser!!!!Hi liebe Grower
Kann mir jemand sagen, ob das stimmt wenn man mehr Licht bzw Watt hat, das die Damen schneller wachsen und eher fertig sind bei Auto Samen. Überlege nämlich ob ich mir eine 2 Lampe zulege soll.

I have several question about my setup for the first week:- is the distance of the light to the plant ok?
- is the intensity of 25% correct?
- should I remove the seed coat or should I just let Mother Nature do it, eventually it will be blown up..
