Power outage during veg

My meter base decided to fry last weekend and my lights were off for 9-10 hours or so. I had them on 24hrs previously. I returned them to 24hrs after the power was back. Now all new growth is twisted and i'm getting lots of pistols. They are all under 6" in size. Looks like that one day triggered them info flower.

Anything I can do, or just wait it out and hope they come around? I can't believe one day would do it. Especially when 18/6 is used alot and these were only off a couple more hours.

The strain is Northern Lights. I've been growing it for a while and its given me rock hard buds and amazing yields.

They will probably be fine, although i've had disruptions like that cause hermaphodites in the past. Shit happens.

imo hermies are not caused by stress but shitty genetics, your plants will be fine but hell thats quick only 24 hrs and they show pistols ? it will take them a few days to get back into veg state

Just to clarify, I had them on a 24 hour light cycle and the lights were off for 9-10 hours for one day. The lights haven't been shut off since and its been a week now. All new growth is still twisted.

They've only been in dirt a couple weeks under low light. So they are pretty small. I should snap a few pics just to make sure nothing else isn't going on though.

You're entitled to that opinion, but I'm not a bagseed grower and have had great genetics go herm. I just had a seedsman ww go that way a few weeks ago.
