    Default moving house.... moving plants in flower?

    Hey guy I have a question. How adversely would a plant be affected if it didn't get ANY fresh air for about 4-5 hours of its dark cycle and would be without ANY ventillation (in a much smaller compartment than the growbox) for this same period? (my landlord unexpectedly announced that we have to move out in a week.... yes, he can do that, I'm currently living in a Eastern European country). I could move the plants to the new location in about 5 hours during the night (temps are lower) during the dark cycle, and could put them back into their growbox with ventillation right after we arrive. Or should I do it during the light cycle? My plants are at the begininng of week 6 of flower (so they'll be at the beginning of week 7 when I have to move) and I'm using soil.

    Any advice is welcome! Thanks in advance.

    do what ya gotta do mate, unlucky situation with shitty landlord.

    only worry would be the RH in the space they will be kept, as you could risk opening the door to rot setting in. doesnt sound like you got much choice though matey lol.

    hope works out ok though

    I've done the same, at worst you'll create a little shock and slow growth for a few days.
    I would move them during their daylight so that you don't interrupt the 12 hours darkness.
    Oh and drive carefully haha.

    Yeah, I've thought about this... I'll definitely try time move them a day before watering (when the soil is the driest). And I'm also planning to pack little bags of calcium chloride into the boxes (around the pots) to dehumidify the air. Hope it works.
