Yeah she will be just fine, I'm sure, unless she's wearin a watch? :-P

Roll one up and chill out man, I'm only in my first grow atm, about the same stage as you are, but i learnt early on that panicking about problems only makes them worse!

And thanks to all the reassurance on this forum, I've managed to relax and enjoy my grow much more! :weed:

peace out

ive never had this problem... but ive read others who had the same incident and u caught it soon enough... luckily the thing that distingishes the flowering, is not how long the light is on, but rather how long the light is off. u could theoretically run into problems if either A) it took u longer to discover the problem w/ the timer B) the lights went on too early after the darkperiod begAN.

ive read some post of people who would flower their plants with a 24on12off and they claimed thats the most efficient way to flower, but a simple 12/12 works. so maybe that bit of info will help set u striaght, chilax man. puff, pass.

I did this once. well had it happen. I had a 1000w cooltube on a light rail and the mount for the light broke on one side. Yea the dam mover dragged the light through the eight plants and broke a few. My bud who was taking care of our grow freaked out and some how unplugged the light mover and light. then didnt get it right for three days.

Now those hermed on us. Started growing shoots right out of the bud sites. Man that was fucked up.

Four hours?
Naw I dont think so.​

DON'T Panic she will be fine i sometime's put mine on 72 hours of total black out before budding this defo decrease's the lenth of time the plant take's in realising that it is time to start budding this take's up to 2 week normaly.A tip that i got from the greenhouse grow dvd's.That is why i love the cannabis cup it's more infomation that i gather at this cup than seeing who wins but saying that it's allways nice to see a strain win you like and plenty off freebies.I had a conversation with a couple of the differant seed comp out there and the weed that i buy or grow my self is nearly allways has good has that in amsterdam.Don't get me wrong the guys over there know there stuff.You will find that cannabis plant's are a very forgiveing plant if my timer goes wrong and light are out lets say 4 hours longer than they should be then i leave them on a extra 4 hour and go back to normal 12/12off.

Yeah happen to me too, I have 8th week flowering Island sweet skunk, and I just found out yesterday that the light was on for 24 hours for the past 2 weeks; the timer broke somehow. It started growing new leaves already. I fixed the light schedule (10 on, 14 off) and hopefully it will be okay... I'll let u know how it goes.

One thing though, you may need to extend the flowering period for a few more weeks depending on how many weeks has the light schedule been screwed; mine has been 24/7 for 2 weeks, so I may have to add another 2 weeks on top of the 10 weeks flowering period... May or may not be true, it is just my common sense, somebody please correct me if I'm wrong...

good luck
 
wow this puts me at ease also,
my fucking timer broke too, and it got 4 hours extra light also. 6pm - 10:15am so i guess il start with new timer on 10pm - 10am
