i messed up last night rearranging my tent. one of the plants was leaning and fell, destroying some lower branches and killing a smaller plant that it fell on. the smaller plant hit the power strip and soaked it overnight, destroying the timer function (this was a dangerous mistake. i am fortunate the electrical components were high quality)

the plants missed 9 hours of darkness before i noticed the lights were still on. how can i go forward from here with the remaining plants ?

plant (a) is on day 2 of 12/12 and not yet preflowering
plant (b) is on day 21 of 12/12 and missed 9 hours of night
plant (c) is on day 21 of 12/12, missed 9 hours of night, and suffered stress from falling over and effectively lollipopping itself

i was thinking plant (a) will be fine since its not yet flowering. maybe i should put it back into veg for a couple weeks?

B and C may have a high risk of hermie now I would think. Should I give them the three hours of night and put em back on their schedule hope for the best?

I was thinking about changing their night cycle so they can at least get 5-6 hours of dark tonight then maybe going to 11/13 cycle ?

If I don't get responses yet I will put them back an hour past their normal cycle on 12/12.

yes^. And get your electrical off the floor.
Yeah i lifted everything off my tent floor really simply by connecting it all to the supports of my grow tent with bellwire. For heavy stuff id take two lengths of bellwire and twist them together.
 
Yes I would agree, do not try to adjust the timer just continue the 12/12. You would have to mess up multiple times for it to mess up your plants.
