Power outage in Flower stage

I am a grower in the north east and have a scrog grow thats 3 weeks into flower. This little storm that hit us has left me without power now for 3 days. Therefore my girls have had no light or nutes in 3 days. How much will this effect my grow?
Much thanks

The lack of light(3 days) wont kill them or the lack of nutes(since no light they wouldnt use much). But, it depends on what kind of set-up you have. For instamce, if you have DWC the lack of O2 to the roots for that long would more than likely cause some root rot.

As long as they have water, you're good. If they were vegging it would be bad but lack of light during flowering isn't really a problem. Again, like ^ said, depending on your set up

I am using an ebb and flood system with 4 feedings per day with individual pots. The pots don't completely drain therefore some of the roots sit in solution but that's normal for this setup.

I have to leave my flowering shit in the dark for 3 days, every 2 weeks of flower .....they end up with 12 days of extra darkness by the time they are done


In a dirt grow the only time you dont want a 3 day non light situation is the 2 week onset of flower... if you dont have light then the plant stretches to much


Oh and by the way if your in veg (lights on for 24/7) and you have leave them in the dark for 2-3 days and then continue your veg cycle...they wont go into flower....
They need a constant 12/12 cycle to go into flower

Sounds like you will be just fine! maybe hand water them once a day.

Thanks for the input. I'll chill till the power gets restored. How many day in the dark are ok?

As far as effect on your yield, I can't say for sure, but in my opinion, I think it would be minimal.

No clue, I remember one time we had a bad snow/ice storm and it was out almost a week. I was DWC and we had no heat, so I had other problems that stunted them. The lack of light wasnt too big of an issue, although they will have some shock when the lights come back on, maybe raise the light up a bit the first 12 on.

cool I'll remember to do that when I get home.
