I'm curious about the consequences, if any, of power blackouts or interruptions on plants grown indoors under lights. My area has upgrades to the grid going on atm with outages forecast over the next month, 3 weeks into my first indoors grow. I'm trying some autos so the time to maturation is way quicker than photoperiod varieties. They have a lot of growing to do in a short time so I'd imagine depriving them of light even intermittently might cause them to underperform. Power has dropped out for an hour a couple of times already this week and 3-6 hour outages are expected over the next month. I'm set at 18 on 6 off and wonder how the hours of lost light might impact on my plants.
Any thoughts appreciated.
