When will it bud?

[joebenn04]

I have a plant and has been growing since early march and moved it indoors about may I still don't see any sign of budding. what can I do to make it start.

You need to give the plant 12 hrs of total darkness and 12 hrs of light and hopefully you have a female plant that will produce the buds.

that was something that I have been wondering since I brought it in the house. she is bushing out nice because I had her on 16 hours of light and only 8 of dark. Should I slowly take her to the 12/12 or can I just change the light cycle in one day?

 

[Urdedpal]

Just switch to 12/12 and if it is a female you should have buds showing in real soon.

thanks, also how can I determine what straind it is

 

[RangerDanger]

A. Get a timer
B. Make sure there are NO light leaks.
C. Don't open the door during the dark cycle. If you interrupt it you'll ruin everything.
D. Continue using veg nutes til week 3, then switch to flowering nutes.
E. You can't tell the strain, ever, not the exact strain If you're an experienced smoker you can tell if it's an I-dom or S-dom; that's about it.

His plant is already ready to flower. He has a pic in his profile.

during that dark period, is the most important, do not let light in there, so if you have to open the doors, only for brief moments at a time. or to do something in the grow room, do it during the lighting hours.
