They shouldn't die in 48hrs, maybe wilt a bit and stretch. Why can't you leave lights on?

they will stretch a little but they will be fine. i always leave my light off the last 4 days at the end of flowering the add some weight. even in veg they will just stretch.

Invest in a good reliable timer, don't stress your babies.

I had my plants go 3 solid days of absolute darkness. When I was able to get in and have the lights on, they hadn't stretched at all, they had wilted as if they were starving for water, which after 3 days they probably were.
The only negative I ended up with was about 50% of the plants were hermies.
I've got a thread on here somewhere about the experience.
