Don't worry about it.

While it's possible the plants may hermie, it's not likely. The plants will probably be fine.

I love the handle now that you know what you are doing Help_Needed- I wish they would let you edit your username so your's can read Help_Needed? and your custom title can be "On the Case" or something like that.

He's right- he has some personal experience with it as well. I had it happen with the Kush this round- added cfl's and forgot to put them on the timer... I didn't realize what I had done for a couple days, so they got 24 hours of light for about 2 days. They are totally fine 3 weeks later.

Personal experience? Oh no, not me. *I* didn't leave the overhead light on for 3 or 4 days. Nope, not me .

Actually, lighting screw-ups are pretty common. I've seen the question repeated multiple times on more than one board. I think that as long as the light problem isn't long term - as in a light leak that lasts the whole flowering period - it doesn't hurt the grow too much. I think..... lol.
