what stage? veg or flower? veg no prob just get back on track. flower? get back on track and try not to let that happen again.
most likely nothing to worry about as long as you have corrected the problem.

you have to give those plants atleast 12 hours of darkness after that i would even do it a little more like 14 or 15 even its ok to shut down a few early but leaving the lights on is not good that never happens in mother nature it freaks them out especially if its a sativa dominant strains that grow around the equator were its 12-12 all year yeah you have a good chance of popping nanners. How many are there

what strains are they you dont even want one to start throwing off naners could pollinate all four of them thats why i hate these goddamn medical laws they dont take into effect that you could fuck up and end up with seeds ive watched my buddy fuck up his crops three straight times all in flowering after week 5 sad hes put some money in and hasnt even made it back. Its his shitty karma tho hope yours isnt like that. Yeah fix it so it wont happen and hopfully those plants will think it was some big fucking lightning storms for 5 hours nonstop lightning up that sky. I think personal medicinal growers should get to have atleast 10 plants over a foot flowering for the first 4 years of getting there cards then after that 6.

they are feminized hash bomb seeds. as they are feminized, that cant possibly go hermie on me can they? worst case is it may affect final yield? am i right

fuvk me just realised i changed the res at 3pm.switched the pump off as it feeds the plants at 3pm for its 15 mins feed. after i changed water i let res run to give them the feed that missed out on at 3. course i forgot to turn off the pump. just turned it off four and half hours later! please feel free to comment on what an idiot i am.

If you have air going to your res you should be fine. But if you don't have air you might show some signs of stress. I've done this a few times. Not a big deal. Try not to mess with timers. Change your tank right after a feeding.

Yeah, most likely your plants will be fine my friend. Don't stress, what happens just happens.

Learn from your mistakes, especially if they affect your grow.

Yeah fem seeds can hermie on you and your chances are actually higher that a fem seed will hermie than if you bought a bag of regs and found a female in it. i buy fem seeds too so im not gonna say go regs. The worse case scenario is they pollinate your plants and you get a bunch of seeds i just picked a plant apart my friend pollinated and its not even worth the work really.

I hate when people say nothing will happen. They said the same to me when my light popped on for 30 minutes in middle of dark cycle. I accidentally bumped the mechanical timer and didnt notice..doh! 4 days later pods are growing on the lower part of one plant, scrapped it. Though your chances of having a hermie are low from a one time oops, there is still a chance. So keep an eye on em and wish for the best. One of my three plants hermied. I'm guessing that was the finicky one so good riddance lol.
