12/12 question

[Phrankie]

I'm not able to keep the veg room 100% dark.
( this wasn't a planned grow)

I do have an attic space that would be best for that. Is it too risky, to manually move the plant when it's time for the dark cycle? As long as it gets 12 hours of uninterrupted darkness?

carry your plants up to the attic everyday for however long it takes to flower at basically the same time every night? i mean, given its not too hot up there, i dont see why ya couldnt...just one screw up though and you got some hermies , just block out those windows and turn of those lights

It's more like a crawl space, then an attic. It is only a few feet away.

I guess i could keep her in the closet, but it has those weird slats on it..

If you flower them for 8 weeks, you'd have to carry each plant 112 times.

It increases the risk of dropping one, but if you really pay attention to what you're doing each time, it's as safe as you are.

With my two cats who take turns finding feline joy in tripping me, I wouldn't even attempt it. One of them would get me.

I wish you a steady hand, sure footing and great luck.

cover the back of the panels with panda plastic and tape, its cheap, its easy, and its dark

I suggest that you get some blackout curtain material and line your closet with this stuff. It is relatively cheap and easy to find. here is a source:

You could put the white side facing in towards the plant(s) for reflectivity during light periods. So you wouldn't need to more the plants using this material.
