ight so here is the problem my aunt wants me to get the plants outta here house in a month and a half they are prolly a foot and my question is if i switch the light to 12 hour this early will they still be in the veg. stage till they fell the need to flower or will they go with the flow as intended so it wasn't a waste of time i told her we needed to wait a lil longer due to them needing to veg. but u know how chicks are and them knowin everything

You can flip to 12/12 whenever you want and they will flower. I had great success flipping plants at 1 or two weeks of veg.

Not with 6 weeks of.flowering you won't. Is either make sure you can flower for its propper.time or not bother at all, but that's just me. You'll also need her place for drying it I guess. that'll be anpther week needed.

6 weeks of flowering isnt enough, tell her you absolutely need at least 8. If the plant is sexually mature showing alternating nodes and preflowers the start of the stretch phase of flowering begins pretty much after the first 12 hours of darkness. Expect the plant to double to triple in size from their size they were when the stretch pediod of flowering started and when its over(3-5 weeks) and the focusing on the buds period begins.

it might not be the best idea to grow pot in someones house who does not want it there. i can just imagine what will happen in week 7 when she wants you to get rid of your plants and you keep saying a little more time....

Then the real kick in the bucket is when you find out its a sativa

yeah that would be over an extra moth than she wants.my last grow was sour d ( sativa dom) and i was moving. had to cut at 70 days because of the time crunch, they easily coulda gone 11-12 wks.

also sativa is indigenous nearest the equator thats y sativa takes longer cause its ment for longer grow periods and yeah it would suck if it was sativa but if they are a foot tall by now i think u can tell if it is a sativa or not u can tell a when they are seedlings cause of the leaf structure
