What would be the best, least stressful way to change my light cycle to turn on at 5am instead of 10am??
My plants are on day 15 of 12/12 so they are vunerable to hermie now. Or so I hear. The reason I need to change them is because, at first my mother never came near where I have the grow room. I live in her basement (i'm only 21) and so does my cat. My cat just had kittens (this morn) so my mom is most likely going to go downstairs to see them and what have you. Anyone who has half a brain can tell that somethings up when they go in one of the rooms in my basement. The closet it bleeding light and the hum of fans and ballasts can be heard. HOwever, none of this can be detected from the outside, or any other part of my house. Anyway...my mom dukes gets home from work around 5 so i figured if I start the lights at 5am and have them turn off at 5... right before/when she gets home. So when she goes down there....no suspicion will arise. And she don't go down there before she goes to work cuz she knows I'll get pissed if she wakes me up before 8.
So basically my question is how I should go about making the change? Ideally I would like to just switch it straight up. But i don't wanna stress out my babies. They have hermie in their genes too so, ya know.
Would it be best to go 10-10, 9-9, 8-8, 7-7, etc....? Is hour increments too much?? Half hour, two hours??
I dont wanna have to fight my mom....
