Leave your grow on the set schedule. For everything bigger than a grow box, coleman lanterns work great for power outages.

That sucks man! Hopefully you won't see any problems! From what I know (which isn't much) the plant gets triggered to flower because it receives that 12 hours of uninterrupted darkness which allows it to build up sufficient levels of the chemical that 'tells' the plant to produce flowers. Long story short, I'd rather mess up my light cycle than my dark cycle. Regardless, it's a 'stressful' situation for the plant. Keep a close eye for nanners and beaners.

Agree with catofcuriosity, turn em on and get your girls back to growing.

Seriously... it's not that serious...
It's like a dark cloudy rainy day...
Once in a while it is not even remotely an issue...

If it's your first or second grow... you'll freak out... cause you're a newbie...
It's all good...

Keep the schedule as is... you'll be fine...

I mean, you do have stable genetics?

So... did you buy a new timer?
Did you find out what cause it to go out?
Is it fixed?
Or... are you waiting for it to go out again?
