Interruption of 12/12

I know that when 12/12 flower cycle is interrupted that plants can hermie... I also know this is more likely to happen with lights off period than with lights on... I just had a power outage for about an hour or so and about 5 minutes into it I went through the house loading every flashlight and spot light I had full of batteries like a crack head in a economic crisis when shit has hit the fan lol...

One light particularly has 1,500 lumens (led) and then had several other lights as well hanging above both tents canopies and below the canopies... My question is what should I or should I even do anything with the timer? Should I push it on up to the current time to make up for time lost during the outage or just leave it? For example if the power went out at 11:00 pm and come back on at 12:00am and now lights are back on but the timer is an hour behind the current real time, should I set it with the current time or leave it be? Someone with experience help me here, don't need any novices causing me any hermie problems lol.

Nope, leave timer well alone, it takes several days of this happening for your plant to change. Don't stress and save those torch batteries, you'll be fine.

Thanks DST... so just I need to just accept the new 8 to 8 schedule instead of the 7-7 schedule?? And this will not cause them any stress adjusting?

You could set it back to 7 to 7 and it wouldn't do shit but unless there's some reason that hour is really important to you why fuck with it if you don't have to. Day light savings is in a couple weeks anyway and would ha e put you on an 8 to 8. If you want wait til then and instead of going 9 to 9 drop it back 7 to 7 if those are the hours you like

Also if I was going to set it back that hour or 5 hours or whatever I would turn off my lights that much earlier the night before to make sure it got its full 12 hours of darkness
