    I always flush my plants when they transition from veg to flower. Usually a week before I transplant into their 5 gallon flowering pots. You don't need a 24 hour dark period to induce flowering, just change the cycle to 12/12 and watch it blossom.

    they started in 3 gallon pots as seedlings, and are still in them.. would it be bad if i kept them in 3 gallon until the end??

    also.. the lights shut off at midnight so that means i would have to turn them on at noon?? they normaly come on at 6.. i would prefer them to still come on at 6 and shut of at 6pm

    Just make sure when you switch them, during the dark cycle they need total blackness! No light at all, I'm talking black out! Light can cause all kinds of issues. Herms, fluffy bud..etc..good luck..not a good idea to share pots either. Lets say your sharing apot with a male and female, note you have pollen issues. If you have a male female pot you will need to pull the male, now you have root issues. The roots have already intertwined so that could kill your plant do to severe root damage. At minimum it will cause major stress, now your looking at a hermmie.

    I keep mine at about 50% always..veg and flower, I'm not real big on humidity. I believe and have seen evidence that the lower the humidity 50% the buds create more resin, the plant is trying to keep itself most. I have amazing results doing this...
