So, I was running a lighting schedule of 18/6 until we had a power outage last night that lasted from 8pm-10pm. I was in at the end of week 6 Veg & decided to use this down time to flip into flower as I was planning on doing anyway next week.

I changed my lighting schedule which was 4am- 10pm to a 12/12 schedule from 6am -6pm. Lights were switched on this morning at 6am & then our power went out again around 7am.
We have no power since & it does not seem like it would be back today. I purchased a battery operated oscillating fans which I’ll pick up this afternoon but my concern is the spikes in temperature without the dehumidifier & also my lighting schedule being messed up now.

Will my plants suffer so much stress that they might herm? I really do not want this to be a loss after more than 2 months.

It’s a cloudy day but I do get a bit of light that comes in through a room window which I’ve now exposed the plants too. I know it won’t be strong enough to grow them after the LED Grow light but would it help with issues like not confusing them & giving them an excuse to herm?

I doubt one day of this will hurt them. Where I live a backup generator is standard equipment. You might look into a small one just for your grow.
