Hi there!

I have some plants under 12/12 for 41 days aout of about 60 now, and they look great with nice buds and so on, but today, I noticed that the temperature in the room nevr dropped for at least a day during dark-time... which means that the lamp never went out for at least a day, which means something is wrong with the timer...

I went in there 20 minutes ago and they were on, alhough they should be off for atleast 20 minutes more...

How bad is this?
What should I do now? should I just leave it on for another 12 hours or just turn it off and flip the schedule completely??

Please help me!

Go back to your normal times immediately. be prepared to be plucking male flowers. Major light cycle interruptions will probably cause the plants to herm..

20 min difference does nothing you should worry if in the middle of you 12 hours off its turning on that would be a problem.I would go buy some digital at home depot for $15 bucks so you know they working mechanic timers tend to do this after a while the links get out of place..but your good if its even a hour before it should go on or a hour after the plant is not effected but if it was in-between hours then yes its a problem you can hermie them

Stick to your schedule.......just get it back on track.You shouldn't have to worry about herms or such bein you caught it fairly quick.
 
:comfort: As the others said. Go back to your schedule and maybee things go so good, then you will not have a problem with males..

Okay, different opinions, I guess in either case, there is nothing for me to do but to continue with the same schedule and see what happens...
