Flowering Problem, Need Help!

[ZeppelinBaked]

I have a 36" plant that has been in bloom for 24 days, and the other night one of my timers must have broke or malfunctioned cause i woke up to find my plant under half light (I have two timers which each control 4 of 8 cfl lights), and then I turned all the lights off right away. My lights go on at 12 noon, and turn off at 11 pm; a 11/13 regimen. What I did was turned my lights off when I found them around 12 noon, and I plan on keeping them off for 24 hours, until 12 noon tomorrow, keeping it dark all through the daytime and nightime. My question is, will my plant be ok? lol i just want to know if theres a chance it will go hermie now, or revert to veg...which would suck. Any tips or advice would be awesome, thanks!

Your plant should be fine. Less light and more dark is ok for flowering, the opposite will turn hermie or revert back to vegetative growth.

Just stay on your previous lighting schedule. Everything will be fine.

I read in a thread that as long as you have the crucial 12+ hours of uninterrupted darkness that you could have a 24/12 regimen, or even 36/12, which in turn would take longer to mature the buds but produce a bigger yield. Any thoughts or suggestions?

That sounds detrimental to a plants health. Even if it did grow buds without stressing itself to death, the buds would be stretched out and loose instead of dense hard nugs. I always prefer the latter.

Ok so after I found it had accidentally gotten the 24 hours of non stop light, i gave it 13 hrs dark, then gave it another 20 hours of light, then 13 dark. tomorrow morning, today the 25th, at 11 the lights come on, from 15 hours of darkness. this is really the only way i could get back onto schedule without completely stressing it out to the point where it just stops growing. anyone think i'm gonna be dealing with a hermie or is my girl going to be alright?

 

[Bud stankalot]

Why don't you just got 11/13 like before?

I went back to that, but it was completely screwed up as i had to give her 12 hours of darkness through the day, after finding she had gotten light all through the night. then the schedule just went out of wack, I don't even really remember how it went at the moment lol but I got it back on track, and she didnt even stress about it that much Fed her this morning and she's looking good still..didn't even think about stunting out on me at all. I Love this girl! Gonna post some bud porn in a bit

It happened to me and everything was fine

Nah not really our avg temp in the summer would prolly be between 26 and 36, usually around 30 on a nice sunny day. I just have a really good AC lol

 

[ZeppelinBaked]

We don't really have mild summers, they actually get really really hot. I just have a good AC lol
