How should I trigger flowering?

I am trying to get my plants to flower. I have switched to a 12/12 schedule, but this does not seem to be changing anything. Should I perhaps give it 24 hours of darkness first?

Once you changed from 16/8 to 12/12 to trigger flowering, this can take 2-3 weeks before anything happens, one week is not long enough and your plant must firstly change her hormones from grow phase to flower phase and this occurs slowly and gradually. Hang in there, it will happen, but it won't happen overnight. Do not try giving total darkness, this will just mess with everything your plant is going through. And yeah, normal pictures in normal light are far, far superior. Hope this helps,.......... Organoman.

Hi mate, can't really see your plant properly because of the burple lights. You should take pics with you lights off and just the flash. If you have just changed to 12/12 then it may take a couple weeks for the plant to start flowering. I wouldn't do any darkness as you are more likely to stress her hermie. If its been a number of weeks since the switch then you have problem, most likely light leaks stopping her from flowering. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing

That strain does not reach maturity to flower till 43 to 69 days. Something like that. So if your week counter is right I would hold off a few more weeks. 🌱👍

Takes about 2 weeks to start seeing it. Plant is changing gears. Leave it in 12/12. Don't cause unnecessary stress by darkness. Start adding bloom booster and gradually increase. Plant will want a lot of potassium and phosphorus soon go easy on nitrogen as flowering goes. Good luck and happy growing. Hope this helps🌱🌱🌱
