I would say after two weeks left they are fine. I had my heated grow box shutdown over night last winter while it was 4 weeks in veg, and it was in total darkness as well as 50 degrees for 24 hrs. It definitely stunted the poor girl for about 2 weeks, but with two weeks into pre-flower (4 weeks later), it looks lush and full, and so far no signs of either sex. I expect no bananas, but will add to this post if it does.

This late in the game there is nothing you can do. You might get a little foxtailing but with 2 weeks to go there isn't any time for her to drop pollen or really affect your thc levels. Just keep a strict light schedule and chop her when the time comes. Good luck!

@FOREVERGREEN are they showing signs of Revegging at all? if not they should be ok just a little shell shocked but if they did attempt to revegg they may now stall until they figure out what the hell is going on with their lighting cycle and reccomence to flower . worst case scenario would be a few extra weeks to wait until harvest

Lighttimers drive me crazy. Iam Feeling you. My timeer like it to jump into the Random mode… that means they look for any lightningtime. I just hate them. so i bought a lot of different timers, and they are installed only for one time. for example one is for 12 Hours, the other one for 18 Hours. Zhis way i have the contrrol. but you cant do anything atm. So only time will Show us, if the plantswere worried and heriieng, But i dont think so. ( I hope so)… so fingers crossed. And yes the market Needs easy working Lighttimers!!! everything that is sold is crap.

Deep breath, don't worry. If this was a consistent problem you're more likely to herm out yes, but you caught your mistake sooner then later. At this point, watch your plants for herms, remove possible pollen sacs, (or the whole plant depending on what you want to do with it) For the remaining time of the grow just make sure their light schedule is on point.

don't over react and do what you said.. watch for hermies and remove any pollen sacs that might appear. You are probably ok since the light was constant.. not on/off interrupting their normal flow. Give them their 12 hours of darkness and continue like you have been. My last grow I had 2 light interruptions week 6 and got a hermie.. seeded some buds, but I still went 8+ weeks. good luck!

This is not a problem if you're growing autos as what I know.. if I were you I'd give 24hours dark and then start again as usual :)
