Flowering/Budding Stage .. Help!

I am trying to find out when does the budding/flowering stage come into effect. I know that when buds begin to produce on the plant, but I have an autoflower, so it will begin to flower on its own. I would just like to know when so I can change the lighting schedule,nutrients,ventilation, etc if needed . help please

Autoflower you leave the lighting schedule the same throughout the grow. Igrew a couple before and just lpayed nutrients by eye, thye dont't require allot being smaller plants anyway.

That is true. Will it still bud nicely if its 88 degrees in the tent?

thats prety hot, on the verge of no growth

Both excessively high and low temperatures can slow marijuana's rate of metabolism and growth. The plants function best in moderate temperatures - between 60 and 85 degrees. As more light is made available, the ideal temperature for normal plant growth increases. In high temperature and moderate light conditions, the plant's stems elongate. Strong light and low temperature conditions will decrease stem elongation. During periods of low light, sem elongation can be decreased by lowering the temperature
