Lighting Problems

One of my light timers failed during week 6 of flower and the 'ON' cycle ran over by 3hrs before I found out. I was then forced to buy a digital timer which I cocked up the programming and the lights went over by 2 hours on the following day. Everything resolved now but was wondering how much of a negative effect this will have if any. Thanx in advance.

Nothing will happen. You and your plants will both be OK. That's one reason I don't use timers I manually turn my lights on and off 9 am and 9 pm. Haven't had a problem in a year and a half of growing.

So whats the tolerance level for 12/12 flowering lighting? I mean can it swing between say 10/14 to 14/10 for example? or maybe just 1 hour up/down? Ofcourse this would be for people who dont use/have timers (like me, lol)

Expect little or no negativity from your short malfunction. Not enough time to re-program the litrtle darlings.

Thanx all. I kinda knew the answer but just making sure, with only 2 weeks left and Christmas coming, didn't want chop day to be delayed. Cheers all.
