you can use flower nutes for veg if you have too.. they might be a lil low on nitrogen, but imvho, nutes are so damned strong anywhos, even the flowering nutes SHOULD have enough nitrogen to get the plants by..
you could also just leaven them in the dark for a few days if you had to.. or go to a home depot type of store, and buy a couple of cfls for the few days you need them.. a week old plant, even a single 23 watt cfl would be better then nothing imo.. a seedling that young won't need much light to survive.. i just had three clones about 2 weeks old under 2 23 watt cfls..

You'll be fine only a week from the flip. I wouldn't change back to 18/6 if you can get back on track in a week or so. Racerboy's suggestion about some cheap standby lighting is a good one. You could keep using the cfl's as side lighting when your new stuff arrives. Meantime, try to get as much light as possible on them during your 'daytime' hours.

oh, ok, yeah, i'd either leave it in the dark for a few days.. since it's in flowering, and flowering is based off of dark hours, not light hours, so the extended dark shouldn't hurt anything imvho..
or.. go to a home improvement store and buy a good couple of cfls in the 2700 k range, and use them until you get the new light. i think i'd get a few cfls personally..

I don't think it would stress the hell out of them.
I've gone from 24/7 to 20/4 to 18/6 to 24/7 to 20/4 again in one plants lifetime and nothing bad came of it besides very slow growth in between those light cycle changes.
What would stress the hell out of them is going from 24/7 to 18/6 to 12/12 to 18/6 to 24/7 to 18/6 to 12/12
Anything that would cause them to flower for a few days then go back to veg cycle.
Currently, it's not flowering season, so putting them in the window, won't stress them as much as you think.
