noob trying to get buds to grow

[Chriss2525]

do i need to transfer the plants into different soil once they reach a certain state?

the Veg state is the beginning when there are no buds, right? and then do i need to do something special to get the buds to start to grow? or will they just grow on their own? about how old is the plant when i'll start seeing the buds/flowers?
I need to know this because i'll be growing indoors and i need to know when to switch the light bulbs to the red/orange glow ones.

Unless you're using an auto-flowering strain, it will flower when its lights have been switched to a 12-12 cycle, that is, twelve hours on, twelve off.

Keep veging until you see your branches go alternate then wait another week for good measure (you want lots of nodes, those are the potintial bud sites) then flip to 12/12.
