I lost power to the grow room for 6 days after Hurricane Michael. I left them alone in the dark and hoped for the best. The flowers and veg girls looked rough when the lights came back on but they all survived. There were no hermies triggered by the disruption.

@Puremich420 I lost power too shortly after midnight last night. For about an hour or so. Bad weather, strong winds. We prolly in the same general area of this storm.
I wouldnt worry about it.You may get an extra hour or 2 darkness, Id just reset the timers.

Might was out for about 4 hours. Wasnât as long as I thought my lady told me she was up when it did it. But when I got up she was already at work lol. So I was left guessing on how long kinda thing

Iâve been without power since last night about 9pm. Thankfully I invested in the Generac so my veg tent had a 15 second outage, max. The flower room runs on a UPS to keep things running while the generator kicks on, so no blips over there at all.
That wind and snow was no joke. I had 3 foot drifts at my front doors and the chicken coop was a bit of a bitch to get into today. (The girls were all snug and didnât care though, since they also have radiant heat and generator backup, haha.)

Hell yeah. As for me shoveling I got 3 out of my 4 kids who help. But Iâm also in heart of the soo. Driveway is long. Good watching out tho. Odd how people have died from shoveling in the UP. Heart attacks an random not paying attention. My kids where out yesterday for 10 mins. Snow fell off the roof an they came running lol

So my solution for power off days is actually very simple and cost me about $30 for way more than I need to keep them happy.
I use these ultra bright led lights to keep the room âOnâ times of rolling blackouts or bad weather. Works like a charm from my perspective.
I have 6 in my room and itâs brighter than the 100w bulb in the closet.

I canât even imagine, the only issue here is the summer heat. IF only it got a bit colder here it would be a lot easier to grow purple
