Evening everyone, hope everyone’s enjoying the banging weather.
Just a quick one. I’ve recently germinated my first seeds via paper towel method for the rgsc comp and the seeds have gone under my T5’s (60 hours later). They’ve been under the lights since midday today, and the plan was to run 15/9 to mimic the sunlight they will get outdoors in 3 weeks time.
This will mean my lights are on at midday til 3am.
I jumped the gun this morning as some of my taproots were a little longer than I would’ve hoped so I wanted them under lights ASAP.
As I did this so hastily, I didn’t really take into account that the lights will be on until 3am (severe gangover, not thinking straight).
I should’ve planned ahead and checked them at 6;30am in case they were ready for the 7am start.
My first question is, can I ‘reset’ the times I have currently set? In hindsight I would’ve wanted them to come on at 7am and turn off 15 hours later at 10pm. Will resetting and changing the hours of light now, ruin/stunt/stress the plants? None are above soil yet, of course.
If it is possible & safe for them, what’s the best way to do it? Leave them on until 3am then off for 4 hours and start again with a new routine at 7am? Or another way?
I hope I haven’t messed up too much, and I hope that the above makes sense. Feeling anxious about this one but first time and all so I guess it’s to be expected!
Hope to hear back from someone soon so I can relax!
