alternating nodes vs. preflowers...

Hi Guys,
This is my secound time doing a grow,..so i'm still very green!

I am growing some NLights on an 18/6 cycle for about 5 weeks now.

I have a few preflowers showing,....but no alternating nodes as yet, plants are about 7 inches tall.

Should I wait for the alternating nodes to appear before i switch to to the ol' 12/12?

I don't want to jepodize a nice fat yield!....but my patience is running low now,....and i need to move house soon! hehe!

thanking you in advance...

The alternating nodes is a sign of maturity but no, it won't ruin your overall yield.

i'd say that your good to go with just the preflowers alone and no alternating nodes as of yet.. flip her to 12/12...
