Lighting mistake

So I made a mistake, about 2 weeks ago I picked up 4 clones about 12 inches tall for a new closet grow. I have them under 400w MH bulbs, my mistake is that I have them on the timer from when i was flowering last run (12/12) I just realized my timer was still that way because my plants are starting to bud! if I switch the lights to 18 or 20 on can I keep them in veg??

If you put a flowering plant on a vegging light cycle then if I am not mistaken it will start to 'reveg'.

Yeah, they'll reveg fine. May take a little time, but it will happen.
Oh and flowering with MH isn't all bad. Plants stay shorter tighter, buds tend to be denser, and produt more resin. Tho over all yield does suffer, it really isn't all that bad.

Yeah the plants stay more compact under the MH. Bud as well.
I personally use HPS along side LEDs, tho I have done some HPS, MH, and MH with HPS work.

When you reveg you get a lot of new growth coming out of the bud spots. You tend to get more of the "monster crop" growth style.
