you can find the directory in the backup tree (under the per-pc
directory),
and just do an rm -rf on it. Afterwards, you can invoke BackupPC_nightly
with something like /path/to/BackupPC_nightly 0-255 (if I remember
correctly); or wait overnight for it to run on its own.

you can also schedule BackupPC_nightly to run at a different time. "The
first entry of $Conf{WakeupSchedule} is when BackupPC_nightly is run." (I've
found this to be pretty useful )
