I'd put them back to 12/12. I don't think it's too bad at this point but they've probably been stressed by the constant light. I'm not 100% sure but I think it may impact the yield a little, as well as cannabinoïds and terpenes production.

I would put em back on the old schedule and keep a close eye on them for male sacs .

IMHO, you may want to consider cutting your losses, putting them in the dark for 48 hours, and chop them. From my understanding, they will definitely be stressed from all that light. More than likely reverting back to veg already. Before the changing hormones have the chance of ruining..well everything. Harvest a little early and prevent most of that damage from setting in. Especially if you’re only a week away from harvest anyway. Good luck.

One week from harvest,

Worse case scenario, plants will stop bud growth, go into nanner making mode in about 7-14 days max, and will start to seed up. Buds by that time you may find premature green small seeds in buds. Not big, but noticeable to a smoker none the less.

Best case scenario, let go as normal, and nothing gets messed up.

But the change in light imo and most everyone else's, somethings gonna happen.

This is great!
Combining the harvest darkness notion with some magical damage that will befall already formed bud tissue?

Let me offer the seed of a new myth.

Leave the lights on 24-7 for the last week.

Nah, just kidding, set them back to 12/12 and and cut as scheduled.
What's done is done.
I'd bet you'll be fine.

pics please (now and harvest)

I guess if you want to think of it as “magical damage” you can. Fact is that even a few minutes of light during thier dark cycle, can be enough to cause reveg. Now I admit that I have no idea what 3 days of light will do to them. But it’s going to do something, and if it was me this close to harvest, I would rather avoid the something.

I wouldn't worry about it at all. They won't skip a beat. Just replace in 12 hour cycle of less and enjoy. Maybe consider 11.5 hours or 11
