light leak problem. please help

hey all;
my plant is in it's 17th day of flowering and all was doing ok however i forgot a 40W lamp lit during all of it's night period. the lamp was far from the plant (at least 150cm). can i get hermies because of that stupid mistake or the plant doesnt produce hermies while flowering? anything to to do to compensate what happened? please help!
thanks a lot!

The dark period needs to be just that, absolutely dark, no more than starlight. Even though the plant is not getting any photosynthetically available light you have still set up a 24/0 light schedule, so you probably never actually initiated flower. I doubt you have problems from herming as you probably never built up enough hormone in the plant to sex/flower. Just turn off of all lights in the area, seal cracks/windows/doors, etc and do not expose to light (ie, look at your plants!) during the dark period. Happy Growing!

actually there's allready lots of pistils on the plant , let me rephrase my sentence cuz it was confusing (sorry): i only forgot this light on once during 8 hours and that was it.

Ah, I read this "forgot a 40W lamp lit during all of it's night period" and thought you had literally left a light on for 17 days, lol. If it was just for 8 hours you are fine.

hahaha thanks a lot man. and sorry about my sentence's structure
