Left closet light on during dark period!

I have blueberry jam. That mom has been flowering for two weeks, the other two are about a week from harvest. I turned my closet light on because I needed to fix something right before the lights came on. I forgot to turn it off, however, and the plant went three nights with this regular closet lightbulb on. It is a weak lightbulb (not cfl), and is WAY above the reflector and plants.

It is enough light to keep the room illuminated however. The plants all look great still, and this happened probably four days ago. The closet light is obviously off now. Should I expect hermies now? I will post some juicy pics later when the lights come on!

400W HPS is what I am using in the flowering room. I am really especially worried for the plant that is only two weeks into flowering. The ones close to harvest won't have a chance to be pollinated and it won't matter as far as I am concerned.

Thanks again for any help and I will post some pics tonight, its my first grow and is turning out nicely I think, blueberry jam as a tight strain as well, smells sooooo good.

Thanks in advance for any help with this unique situation!

It's possible that they could herm, but more than likely you'll be ok. The two that are a week from harvest won't have time to grow much male parts and no time to seed themselves. Keep an eye on the other one for male parts.
Three days is probably not long enough for them to revert back to vegging, but the one two weeks in might pop out some strange looking growth for a few days if it got bumped off course.

Input much appreciated thank you, I will write about what happened when I post my grow journal after harvest!
