Switching dark period from night to day time

[gangotri]

Has anyone done it? If you are doing dark period at night and want to switch and start doing it during day time (for heat reasons), how can you do it? Keep it on for a day or keep it dark for 24 hous? will it be bad for the flowering development?

If you are going to switch the light cycles and are just vegging then all you need to do is reset the timer to whatever time you want it to come on and off. Switching the times of day that the dark period happens isn't going to affect stable genetics.

However if you are on 12/12 i suggest leaving the lights off for 24 hours and then switching your timer to the way you need it. If you interrupt the 12 hour day and night with a 24 hour day period then you are just begging for hermaphordites.

Mr.Wakenbake, do you think they can become hermafrodites anytime, even in late flowering or only at the beggining of flowering?
