Interruption of Dark Cycle with 2 Hours of Light?

I went to get something in my garage today and noticed the lights were on when they should be off. It looks like I accidentally bumped the timer knobs, the lights were on for about 2 hours after being off for about 2 hours during the beginning of the dark period. I immediately shut them off for the balance of the dark period (still dark as of now).

Will this cause hermies or is it not that big of a deal? I have one strain that is somewhat prone to hermie (CBD Crew Sweet and Sour Widow).

Should I extend the dark period from when I found the problem and shut the lights off for the full 12 hours (or close to it) or just leave it on the normal cycle?

I'm not concerned with a delay in the flowering process, just looking for thoughts on the probability of getting hermies. I did some searches but didn't find much on an interruption of the DARK period, which I would think is worse than interrupting the light period?

Thanks,
Cascadian

I think you'll be fine man. Unless those things really want sacs.

It believe it would take more than one interruption to cause those nanners.

Thanks, that is what I was hoping to hear. I know it is mostly the CBD Crew feminized seeds that tend to hermie, but I have read grows journals where the regular seeds will as well. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Just a heads up...

I have a Green Crack that I tried to hermie. I stressed it the hell out. Flipped lights. Left Porch light on. Put in Cold, Hot. Called it names, lol. Let it go way over it's flower cycle. And Nothing. She would not throw out any nanners.

This isn't true with all plants but some genetics are super dialed in. If you have something that is prone to hermie you should probably get that out of your room anyway.
