Flower cycle light problem

Yesterday I suspected something wrong when my timer was to turn my lights on. Thought it was just in my head. Today i made sure to watch when the lights go off. The timer didnt turn them off, I had to manually switch it. Unfortunately I cant look into it more for the next 9 hours or so.

My question..... I know it is 12 hours of uninterrupted dark that triggers flower, not a lack of light... If my lights never went off yesterday for the 12 hours of dark cycle, would this be an issue? If it happened it was a one off. Plants seem to have suffered no Ill effects, but it is early yet.
Not interrupting dark seems like it's more important than missing and entire dark cycle. Obviously not going to make a habit of it, just looking for piece of mind

Not ideal but they should be fine if your still in stretch/early flower. And yep, dont make a habit of it lol.
