:confused:I have about 24 Shiskaberry plants about 3 weeks into flowering. The 2 -- 1000watt lights would run from 5pm to 5am. Due to unforseen events I had to move them outside this is reversing the 12/12. The lights were on at night now they will receive it in the day. They already have small buds. What is the most likely out come of this tragic misfortune?:confused:

Is the light outdoors where you live a steady 12/12 and will remain there? If so, I doubt you'll have any problems at all.

Good luck

im sure it will stress them for a bit. they will learn the new schedule and adjust.
what are the light / dark hours now for you for outside?
i would of put them outside just before the lights were suppose to come on, then they would of only had a breif interruption at the end of 1 dark cycle and then have another dark cycle.

with your light hours creeping up it may go back to veg. any way you can cover them with something light proof and take it off same times every day so they only get 12 hours of light?

I agree, you risk reverting to veg with anything over 14 hours light. You're going to have to manually cover them or let them revert to veg and grow enormous when they reflower.
