power went out

so the power just went out, it was out for about 3 and half hours and i am new to this whole thing i am just wondering if this is a significant problem or what should i do?

ur not flowering yet right? If not dont worry bout it. Flowering is when this matters the most. As long as they dont get 12 hrs of consecutive darkness you are fine

What is the light cycle are you using?

im flowering right now =/

How many days are you into glowering?

been 12/12 for 25 days but the plant has been ACTUALLY flowering for about 12 13 days

If its a female and its light time when it happened lets hope it doesn't mess it up and cause it to go hermi

ya ur looking at a hermie at the worst.

oh no no no i do not want that i have a female right now....the lights were only out for about 3 and half hours is that gonna mess it up that much...its already producing bud....should i keep it on schedule or let it get its extra 3 hours of light?

also how will i know if it becomes hermi....will it still produce bud as well?

1 - Don't give it the extra 3 hours of light just keep the 12/12 the same as if the power going out never happened

2 - A Hermi will produce buds to but it will also create polen sacks. if you want you could take the polen sacks off as you see them or let it polinate its self and you will end up with ferminized seeds

well....i shall ask you...if you were in the same position as me would you just remove the sacks or let it pollenate....are there any benefits from it pollenating itself or would it just make more sense to snip them off?

If it happened to me if I would just let it polinate its self cuz it's more time casuming to look at your plant every day to see if it has sacks or not.

The Pros of letting it polinate its self is that you will end up with a lot of seeds cuz 1 plant can produce easly 100 to 1,000 seeds. And you can grow thoes out and you could end up with a few good females or more.

at 25 days of flowering i dont think that 3 hrs of no light is going to make any difference. I have done worse and not hermed plants. If i was you i would just continue things as normal

I think you'll be fine, As said above, act like it didnt happen dont give an extra 3 hours light. It's more of a problem if it gained 3 hours light than it losing 3 hours light. Should be good to go.

alright that sounds good to me ill keep that normal light schedule then sounds good to me...

if you can next time your power goes out bring them outside or in a lit room from the outdoors that should keep them ok.

Just leave her on the same 12/12 as if the power never went out, BTW self pollination will not produce fem seeds, Why does everything think this?

Hate to tell you but if the light messed up and makes it go hermi or they give the female plants a chemical to change it to hermi that's how you get Ferminized seeds then let it polinate its self. Hence why people get Hermi from Ferminized seeds

@ blazedhippie yea thats what i tried to do, thinking on my toes opened up all the blinds and put it right in the middle of the room
