Timer Panel 8 Light

When growing cannabis indoors, you’re going to need timers for your indoor grow. You basically need to be your plants’ God, and give them sun when they need it and take it away when they don’t. Cannabis plants (not auto flowering strains) depend on light periods, which is basically the amount of time they get of light and darkness. Depending on the amount of hours of each, they’ll go through different stages; 18h of light and 6h of darkness for their growing phase, and an equal 12/12h period for the flowering or blooming phase. Of course, it’s practically impossible for you to control the times so rigorously, so you’re going to need to find a way around that.

To regulate your plants light period it’s important to acquire a timer. These devices are attached to the light switch and they’re in charge of turning the grow lights on and off when you’re not there, or even if you are there, you still won’t have to do it yourself. Not all timers are the same nor are they invincible, they all have a certain amp resistance, and when it comes to your crop you’ll need to be careful when picking the timer as a mistake in the timing or it breaking could ruin your entire grow.

Caution

Some people connect a power strip to an analogue timer, with three grow lights connected to the power strip and they expect the timer to not burn out. You mustn’t do this, as it can end up killing your plants, revegetating them or even setting fire to the room and causing the firemen and police to come investigating, and you definitely don’t want that. Some timers can deal with two lamps, but you can also get timer boxes that control the lights with total security. If you use one of the proper boxes, you can rest easy in knowing that nothing will go wrong and your crop should be fine if you leave it for a while.
