if your talking about the light cycle which its sounds like then it should be ok to leave it an check it tomorrow to see if it switches on/off at the right times you set it as.

If its still not switching off/on when you set it you might have a defective timer.

dont worry, asa one off mistake it wouldnt do any serious damage. i did it a few years back, but it didnt effect my harvest.

just ensure your time is plugged in and continue your grow as normal! If your still worrying then tomorrow look in on your plants, but im sure 1 full day of light wont hurt them.

me personally I would of turned the lights off asap . and leave off for 12 hours and start that new schedule what ever it may be. I have do that before twice , fucking power outages fucked my times. extending the lights will tell the plants its not time to flower but time to reveg.
