Ok i´ve done some research and what i´ve found was this:
When u force a Cannabis plant to reveg (specially for short periods of time) one of the major drawbacks is the possibility of getting leaf curling without particular signs of leaf descoloration (the other is the increase of hermie plants), this phenomenon happens because the plant produces 2 dif tipes of leaf tissue in a very short period of time causing the leafs to curl or even to wry...its also stated that Haze or Haze dominant plants have an easier recovery due to their higher growth rate while Indica or Indica dominant plants due to their more compact and stacky structure and tend to take longer to recover...also the plants imunnitary system is seriously damaged in plants that are reveg, this may lead to poor yield, poor taste and low pest and plague resistance.......it would be nice to ear what more experienced growers have to say on this issue cause like i said in a previous post i experienced the same prob when a timer didn´t switch off on my 3 week old flowering plants leaving them for 24h under a 400w HPS, the plants are TODAY 7 weeks into flower and they still show the curled leafs (as soon as the lights turn on im gonna take a few pics 4 u to see)...
I dunno if this sounds acceptable or if in fact u had a problem with your photoperiods but i thought i would translate the DVD info just in case...
