Buy a new timer....but if you have to then 30 hours of dark. If you get over 12 or 13 hours of light the plant will start to reveg.

If I had this problem, I would probably shut down the main lights and just run a 60 watt in there.Not completely dark, not completely lit up either....30 hrs., it wont be the end of the world, its really not the way to go, of course, but it wont be as devastational as you think.

30 hours of dark will not cause consquences. Nature often experiences long periods of heavy clouds. 30 hours of light possibly could cause some issue though..
