Week 10.. left a light on.. What to do?!

So.. I switched to 11.5/12.5 a couple nights ago, and foolishly decided to take advantage of a couple extra minutes of darkness by plugging a shop light into my "night" outlet to clean my cooltubes out real quick before the HiD's powered on.. Well I forgot to unplug it and it ran all of last "night". I have been flushing for about a week now and have been meaning to harvest any day now.. 72 days into this flowering period.. Wondering if this could somehow screw me if I harvest while it's stressed like this or if Ill be screwing myself if I don't harvest before it responds to this stress.. My lights just turned on a couple minutes ago so if harvesting is the best option..

One interrupted night at the end of flowering is not going to make a difference. Your plants will be fine.
 
Usually if I find a timer that has failed on me, I will kill the other lights and then shut the still on light off. Then when my scheduled 'daylight' comes again I turn them back on and reset my timers. I may be wrong but I believe it is the amount of darkness that is important in flowering. But if it happened once, I wouldn't sweat it, I have had it more than a couple times through the years.
