How old were plants when you switched to flower

To kickstart flowering, you put it in 12/12 as you stated. What you are suffering from is something called impatience.

i know about 12/12 i asked giving it an extra 1 or 2 hours could that help if you have been waiting for a fair bit of time?

No else we'd all be doing it. As i say, you are simply suffering from a lack of patience. It will grow as fast as it will grow, if there were tricks to make ti go into flowering earlier they wouldn't be tricks they'd just be the way. Like the phrase "if it was easy it wouldn't be a shortcut it would just be the way"

LOL , Patience , Patience , Patience .
You can't make plant grow faster by changing light schedual , and not by feeding more nutes either.

As said above. Switch to 12/12 and wait. It takes a few weeks at 12/12 before it will show signs of flowering, then it will take more weeks to finish. If it hasn't showed signs yet then the only thing you can do is. Wait. Patience is key.
Just keep the your 12/12 schedule, water/feed when needed and leave it alone during the dark cycle. Eventually it will flower.

They are speaking out of their arse is what they are doing. By your 4th grow you should really know by now that cannabis can be any ize you want and that no breeder could possibly tell you what size it will be. The very best they can do, which mainly depends on whether there is a uniform pheno or if it's a crapshoot, is tell you that it might be a bit taller than normal, or a bit shorter than normal, but the instant they put an actual number out there they are talking shit, plain and simple.

You can grow any strain any size, it is entirely upto you, while some strains might be a little better with regard to trees or tiny 12/12 from seed, any plant can be grown small and any plant can be grown large. except autoflowering naturally but they're stupid so i'm not gonna include them in my notion of "plants" :D
