...lights stayed on for 2 days in mid flower, what now?

...I'm pissed!

...my timer took a shit on me and my lights stayed on for 2 days....I'm in week #5 of flowering. I've been growing for several years now, but have never fucked up my photoperiod like this before.

...I'm expecting hermi/seeds at the worse, but I'm really in fear of the ladies flipping back into veg. What do you guys think?

Havent seen this problem before. interested to see wat happens

i dont think its possible to flip back to veg if its #5 flowering

...yeah, I'm kind'a stress'n over it. The problem is fixed now (ofcourse), but I just know there's going to be a consequence.

2 days isn't too bad. I don't know how stable your genetics are though

...actually, I know it is possible, I've reveged plants before after 8 weeks of flowering....but, it seemed to take over a month for them to start to veg. Wonder how long it takes for the hormones to switch over or what not?

but it was only 2 days

same thing just recently happened to a friend of mine. lights were on for 3 days, they all hermed on him, end product was quite disapointing, alot of seeds and the potencty wasn't there like it usually is. and of course you can go back to veg no matter how long they have been flowering. some people reveg on purpose after harvest, which is atleast 8 weeks in.

...the strain is TGA's, Critical....been growing her for about a year now (SOG) and she has never shown any bananas....pretty stable I'd say.

Re-vegging? Never heard of that. 2 days shouldn't hurt so bad imo. I'm excited to see what happens tho. All about the FacTs!

...awe hell....I hate hearing this.
...(more details) I have 3 lights. 2 of the lights (filled with Critical plants) have been in flower for 5 weeks. The 3rd light just recieved a transplant, and is the light that stayed on for 2 days. The Critical plant's lights were still on 12/12, but these are all in the same room. I hope my critical doesn't get jacked up

...thankx fellas!

You're welcome!

but not to sound like a dick or anything..
but were you out of town for a few days and thats how they stayed on? or do you have the willpower not to check on them every 10 minutes like I do?
I feel like I could just sit in their tent and watch forever.
