1 x 4 h stray light - is there a risk of hermaphrodites? VEG DAY 16

Hello everyone!!!

Because I actually work very carefully and tidily..
I also made a mistake yesterday, which makes me very thoughtful now :D

I'm @ VEGI DAY 16 now

Unfortunately, yesterday I had the power strip in the box, where the orange on/off switch is on.
Unfortunately, this little disturbing light was on for 4 hours until I just noticed it....

18/6 :
So after 18 hours normal light, then they had 4-5 hours of darkness with a little stray light :(

Is it already a danger if it happens once during the VEGI phase - or can I be reassured???

or is the hermaphrodite disturbance only driven during the flowering phase? or already @ Vegi?

Sorry if this question comes across toy-like, but I would like to get several opinions/experiences

No, vegetative state/time can be 16/8, 17/7, 18/6, 19/5, 20/4, 21/3, 22/2, 23/1, 24/0 Day light during the spring months fluctuate anyway. Check out the farmers almanac or google day light hours for your area and you'll see them fluctuate through out the season, even in flowering but in flowering they stay within the flowering times. Only time you have to be concerned about herming is in flowering when after the plants are at rest, they get some kind of light source.
However, I do keep 16/8 as I prefer that for the 8hours of darkness for the simple fact of less electricity.
