OK to oxygenate 8 hours after pitching?

[itsme_timd]

I saw a couple thread and re-oxygenating high gravity beers but nothing on this specifically.

I brewed yesterday and pitched my yeast this morning, the starter wasn't ready to pitch last night. I forgot to oxygenate but had to head to work, I won't be home for 8 hours. The OG was 1.077 and the beer is a Belgian tripel white IPA.

Will it be OK to oxygenate when I get home? Will I have any negative impacts from my beer going 8 hours without oxygen?

JZ recommends doing this with big beers, and i believe so has palmer.

Thanks. I thought I'd heard that before but wasn't sure if they'd said that about initial oxygenation or hitting it a 2nd time.
