Good Day Fellow Growers! I have been growing my own plant for about 7 weeks now its definitely time to start getting ready for the flower stage of my plants life. I have started the flush week of just clean filtered water at 6.4ph. The question I have is this, Sunday I plan to start the transition, light cycle has been 18/6 10:00am to 4:00pm is the dark period right now, Sunday when the lights kick on at 4:00pm do I just dial them back to shut off at 4:00am and just go straight into a 12/12 cycle? and how long (how many days/weeks) am I in this light period for? Thank you all can post photos if needed, shes coming out beautiful so far for my first plant ever.

Thanks in advance for all the advice and help!

One Love,
Debow

Yes go straight into 12/12. You are in 12/12 until harvest. And for flushing.... flushing is for toilets. Stop. Its bro science at its best. Just stop. You growing in soil?

Agreed. Straight to 12/12 til harvest. Typically speaking you would want to continue grow nutes for the first 10-14 days after you flip the lights. At least through the stretch period. So if you are flushing it now you are likely starving it. Also agree that any flushing is an old school myth.

Hey thanks for the responses! I am about to water now, so continue using my veg nuts for another two weeks then flip to the Bloom nutrients by Humboldt Nutrients? I am growing in soil.
 
Gonna piggyback on this...

Is there any benefit/harm with adding 1 hour darkness each day till the 12/12 lighting schedule is reached...so a progressive transition? Or do you suggest a straight 12/12 transition?


Indoor grow/photo bagseed/12 weeks/first time grower. Making the flip today.

Thanks!
