Dumb ass partner fucks up the timer... now what? Experienced growers pls advise

About 3 1/2 weeks into flowering, my partner switched some things around.

One of the things he switched was the timer. He consolidated 2 lights to one timer on a power strip. All good.

But, the fucking idiot plugs a timer in that's on 8-16 instead of 12-12.

It's been roughly 3 weeks. I noticed growth had slowed, and nodes were starting to space. Then all of a sudden the leaves started curling, and flower production halted. I thought at first, that I had perhaps overfed them somehow, and that proper leeching would straighten them out.

So, I realize my worst fears when I double check the timer he plugged in is on an 8-16 light cycle.

Now what?

Of course I switched everything back to the way it should be.

Can someone tell me what to expect out of my plants now? Are they going to get a lot taller? Is my yeild going down? Am I starting budding @ square one?

I'm so fucking pissed, I could really use some advice/good news. There is a lot at stake here. Over a god damn timer. FML Help

It may hermie from the stress but, it was 3 weeks in so it may have revegged. All you can do is see what happens and hope for the best.

ya man that blows.
no need to be pissed tho, it was out of your control.
i understand the frustration, but like ak said above, hope for the best.
they sell some shit at the hydro store to help reduce the hermies or some shit like this.
i read about it on another thread at one point, but ive never seen it or asked about it.
you could try and read up on that and see if it would benefit you to use it.
good luck with the girls mane.

just cross ur fingers and yea, like the other 2 said...hope for the best. I had a plant that revegged and actually produced a HUGE amount because i just put it through another cycle of flowering, and it actually produced a MONSTER amount. (1/2P i think).
