Fuse blown in house,lights went off for 36 hours-need help

I've just got home after a night round a friends and i've come home to a completely dark house cos the main fuse had tripped.My white widow are nearly ready,8 1/2 weeks into flowering but they've been in darkness for the last 36 hours instead of the usual twelve.I've just checked the trichomes and they're all milky but i'd say 50% of the pistills are still white and standing up.
I'm wondering if I switch the lights back on will it damage the plants in some way like put them back into vegetative or something or shall i harvest them?
Any suggestions would be well appreciated:cry:

putting the lights back on will not damage them.

if they are ready to harvest, then harvest. if not, put the lights back on.

and for all that is good and holy, get an electrician to help you. house fires for cannabis growers make us look bad and dangerous.

I agree with them. Too much dark way better then too much light. I've had the same problem before with no bad effects.

You are fine, think of it this way, in the wild or outdoors you could have a storm that lasts a week with little to no sunshine at all and everything still lives. Just switch the light back on give the girls a drink and it all good. If you have an iphone you could get a bebecam and check it remote at any time, cost 100 bucks. If there is no connection you know there is a problem. If all is well you will know all is well. I travel a lot and check on my girls all the time, if I cant get a connection I know there is an issue at the house and I react. Good luck and dont worry

Hey Chrishydro,could you give me more info regarding this bebecam.I've got an iphone so it sounds like an excellent idea.Is it a sort of webcam that looks over the girls and you can log on to check them out?

With how close to being done you are even if the plant did hermie now it wouldn't have time to spread any pollen...so turn em on and let those puppies finish..
