Default light getting in...even just a lil' bit....
i've been flowering for 5 weeks, going into my 6th 2day. after 2 weeks all showed but 1, anyhow, the 3 females i have aren't doing anything, just a few hairs & getting taller. started 12/12 after 6 week veg.

the plants actually seem to have gone back into veg, can a very lil bit of light getting inside cause this ?.....i have seen others with plants after 3 weeks flowering & i'm not even close to that !

last nite i spent hours on correcting the light seepage issue & would like to know what to expect. will my plants go back to flowering & be ok, will it take a few weeks to kick in or will it just pick rite up ?

Keep in mind that in a natural setting it is never pitch dark. There are stars and the moon that create light. When the moon is full it's pretty bright at night.

I don't think a couple of small light leaks would be that big of deal.

Jojaxx... I know this could be a typing mistake but...

Are you sure you are using the right lights...

Daylight bulbs are 6500k

Softlight bulbs are 2700k

If you are using "Daylight" bulbs... that could be the reason your girls are a bit confused.

Hi man..relax.. 3 hours is a bit short in time to get all pissy... OK what you can do is give it 24+ hours dark to try to put it back to flower..and avoid that light leak shit or you might end up with hermis..... Pot is suicidal..it'll die or grow balls just to teach you a lesson.... Damn those lovely plants....... Luck
