basshound Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 I Had a timer go bad and left a light on (for how long have no idea). My lights are off while i'm at work, so didn't notice that I had a light on durning the off hours. I think the plants went back into veg. My question is will these plants come back out of this or should I just destroy them and put new ones in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mibrains Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) do NOT trash the plants they will begin flowering again as soon as you correct the timer issue. watch for nanners. when a plant is stressed out it may throw nanners (hermaphrodite tenancies could occur and the plant may try to produce its own seeds to save itself) nanners if your not aware are yellow pistols and contain pollen which would upon release make your entire grow gain seeds. (non sensamalia) if you correct the timer issue your plants will begin blooming again and should flower without to much trouble depending on how far along they are and what strain they are. good luck and welcome to the forums.

t-pain Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 may take a week or two for the plants to re-adjust. mibrains nails it though. mibrains 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshound Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 I thought maybe they would be alright, but never had this issue.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-pain Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 i've not heard of timers going bad like that, unless they were dropped or cracked plastic. i have forgotten to change the timer from "always on" to "timer" mode though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trichcycler Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 scary huh? sorry you got a dud. mibrains advice for the win. I've had four timer failures since 2008. no nanners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshound Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 The timer worked fine for months and when I noticed light on in middle of cycle I first checked timer. The time must of reset itself cause time wasn't right. Now I got plants that should of been ready 2 weeks ago looking like they only been in flowering for 3 weeks. got me bummed out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingdiamond Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Exactly how much extra light did they get ? Unless it was more than a day or so Id go back to the normal schedule and hope for the best at worse you might get some hermies or a few beans.
