Oops, light cycle screwed up, need input!

Okay here it is:

I don't use light timers, I just wake up and turn the lights on at the same time every day.

Last night I accidentally forgot to turn the volume up on my cell phone and didn't hear my alarm go off and my babies got and extra 1hour and 15 minutes of darkness!!!

I have kept them on a 20/4 cycle their whole life and now I think I will just keep on giving them that extra 1 hour and 15 minutes rather than switching back to 20/4 tonight.

Would switching back have any adverse affects on the plants or not? ANY INPUT WHATSOEVER WILL BE APPRECIATED!

It wont bother them. Just put them on 24 hrs and ya wont have to worry about them.

I put my first grow on 24 hour lights and was not impressed with the outcome. I found that those plants had weak stems and took forever to develop preflowers. This is my 3rd attempt and these plants which have been on 20/4 are 10 days old with 3 nodes, strong stems, and rapid folliage growth. Perhaps I will ease the plants down to 18/6 from here until they are ready to flower.

Thanks for the input dude
