Too much heat make my trichomes amber early?

I screwed up earlier with my timer and my flowering plants got 18 hours of light. For the last 6 hours of this the space was not being vented, and the temperature right outside the tent got up to 90 degrees. Some of the tops inside probably experienced 96 degrees for about 5 or 6 hours. Will this damage my trichomes or make them amber early?

nope.. shouldn't really screw anything up. typically the hotter temps just make for less dense buds. also running that heat consistently will really up your chances for spider mites since they love dry heat. i have never heard of temps making trichomes change color either. the amber trics come along when the plant is done flowering and the chemical compound changes. if only higher temps made the trics change faster... think everyone would be running a 90 degree grow room hehe.
