there will be no problems they can bud with anywhere from 10-14 hours of light. Different hours of light when budding has different effects on the plant i think if it stays on 14 you will yeild more 10 more potent.

I would say no, they will flower with anything less than 15 hrs of light. But What I have heard is they don't like their wake up time to change, don't know if there is any truth to that but I would wake them up every day at the same time. If they get 12.5 hrs a day of light I don't think that will hermie them.

i myself feel it takes alot to get a plant to hemi. i think as long as you are with in reason of the same time you will be fine. i know people who have cut the light to start the flowering and have switched to 14 hours of light and then others who just go to ten. since they say your bud is stronger with more light or less light you know those rumors. but you should fine as long as your best to stay close to 10-14 hours aday and with in the same time limits on and off
