Hi all, right im pretty sure this wont cause to much of a problem but with it being my first grow and getting near the end i just would like a few confirmations that things will be okay or not????

My plants are in a 2m tent which has 2 x 600w lights, 4 plants under each light, anyhow at some point yesterday iv stupidly knocked the connector of 1 of the lights with out relising, now my lights go off at 5pm and come back on at 5am in the morning, i didnt relise this had happened until 2pm today so basically my tent has only had 1 light on which is over to one side of the tent for 9 hours, the plants on the side that were under the light that didnt come on were not in darkness but also not under any direct light. i switched the light on so they will only get 3 hours of there normal full power light before the lights switch back off, any thoughts on wetaher this will effect my plants would be appreciated, im 90% sure it shouldnt really matter as i suppose its just like them having a dull day for a bit?????

if it was only 9 hours it wont have any detrimental effect at all.

Thanks all i thought it would be okay but went in to panic stations when i first saw the ballast disconected, iv set it up so the wire dangle down the front of the tent and keep knocking it, a bit of silly pre planning on my behalve and cant change it until finished! iv put some tape round it now to stop if from disconecting

cheers all
