flowering and budding light times?????!!!!

About how ong should i have the lights on and off for the flowering process to begin and for how many days and then how long should the lights be on and off for the budding cycle and for how long??? Tree is about 2 months old and about 18 inches big, sort of bushy......thanx peace.

flowering and budding are basically the same thing. to induce flowering you need the get the plant on a 12hour light/12 hour dark schedule. it must get 12 hours of darkness. then about a week later you may start seeing either little balls or sets of 2 little white hairs showing up right where the braches meet hte stalk. if its outside the only way to force flowering is putting something over it for 12 hours or wait for the days to get shorter.

So thats basically it? Isnt there different schedules of light periods you can put them on to stimulate different growth and get better buds, or should i just stick with the basics.....

I also heard that in the time of darkness you can turn a black light on for about ten minutes each day until harvest to make some wicked a$$ resin spores and sticky a$$ buds, will that really work???

The standard is 12/12.

Theres a reason its the standard: because it works.

No. 12/12 is all you need.
