Very High heat briefly

So I wasn't at home when my lights kicked on at 5. I had my girl go into my flower room to make sure my mini split ac kicked on. She must have hit the wrong button because it was not on when I got home at 6, of course. Temps where in the 100°s probably 110-115° for an hour. I'm 11 days in flower exact running 4-1000s hps and 1-630cmh, so you can imagine it was hot. I was just wondering if i damaged em because I'm still in stretch? Also if there's anything I should do, like a foliar feed when lights go off to lessen the stress? Let me know, cheers, thanks.

O forgot to say she left door to flower room open halfway so it probably helped out l, because the room is sealed.

When I first started growing I used a closet off my livingroom and come summer it felt very hot in there, the temps in the livingroom was high 80's, when I finally bought a thermometer to put in there it was above 100. Since then what I do is leave the door wide open when the light is on and a fan blowing inside which helps keep the temps within 10 degrees of the livingroom. Im too cheap to get an ac. The plants turned out fine in the end and they were in 100 degree temps for a few days.

I found an old thread from last summer about the heat wave, I took a photo of the thermometer in the grow closet showing it was in the upper 90's whenever the light was on. I had a great harvest.

Haha ya I freak out when lil problems like this happen, but the truth is- it happens to all of us growers. You should invest in a/c. You think you get good results now, well you'd absolutley get killer results with an a/c
