Power Outage

Hey guys, I came home to my power being off out tonight. It came back on 30 min after I got home. When I went to reset my timers I saw that I lost 3 hours. I have plants in flower, veg, and clone stage. Is this going to hurt my plants. Also, what is the maximum time you can deal with your lights going off before shit starts to shock your plants? Is it strain specific or what? Advice on the matter is appreciated.

Not really a big deal interrupting the day of the plant. Uninterrupted night is all that's very important.

I wouldn't even worry about losing 3 hours of 'day time'.

I agree most people will have you believe if you get interupted for 30 seconds your whole grow is doomed, but life happens and you should be fine. Sometimes there is nothing you can do, just get things back to normal and march on.

Word... I appreciate both of your responses. Thanks!

I live on the ocean and during the winter we have wicked nor easters that come thru and knock my power out all the time.I've never really seen an effect on my plants.If its a couple days it may cause an effect.This past winter i just back fed my panel with my generator and problem solved

same thing happened to me over the last 3 weeks. it happened twice, power off for about 2-3 hours each time.so far it doesn't appear that anything has changed. good luck.

Thanks for all the support everyone... I'm thinking it's not going to be a problem based on the responses I've gotten. You guys rock.
