Hardening off question

Hello all, i have a question regarding hardening off my plants. I went through all the appropriate steps to harden off my plants and i was up to leaving my plants in full sun for 3 hours with no ill effects on the plants but due to work and a few windy days ive had them indoors under lights for about a week now. Do i need to start over with the hardening off process or am i good to resume the plants under full sun? Thank you.
 
Yes, I agree with Shaggy. Repeat the whole thing. Better safe than sorry. Less than ideal temps is one thing. Wind is wicked and done my seedlings in more than once.
 
Unfortunately i live in a high wind area so i tend to do most of my growing in pots so i can move them into the garage on bad days. It makes hardening off difficult because the wind is especially bad late winter and early spring. The plants always seem to adapt well but it does take some hard work to get them to that point.
