What's your lighting? 12/12 will trigger flowering. If its still under 16-18 hours lighting it won't flower.

u can force flowering by covering the plants for 12 hours darkness, once u start seeing buds u can attempt to let them do theyr own thing. good luck

He's growing outside, so his light cycle is dependent on the sun =)
OP: You'll have to wait til the nights get longer before you see any real flowering action. Depending on where you live, this should be going down pretty soon.
I've read cannabis takes about six months to complete it's life cycle outdoors. I can't confirm this but I'm sure someone will come along who knows for sure.

I began force flowering my Northern Lights girl this past Monday...already seeing significant signs of buds...
Just put them in darkness or cover them with a large garbage can two hours prior to darkness. Uncover them when it's dark...so they're only covered for a coupla hours. This triggers the flowering response. But remember, you must remain diligent enough to keep up this strategy for the duration of flowering phase, or at least until the night fall hits around the same time you would cover your plants.

This is the risk all of us growers take. If you're not comfortable with the risk, don't grow.

good points jonboy, also, check out the strain that you're planting to find out how long the flowering cycle is. that will help you alot!This is the risk all of us growers take. If you're not comfortable with the risk, don't grow.

Dec 4th??? lol. Prolly more like Aug 4.
Don't get too stressed about your plants....some strains just take longer than others to start flowering. I bet that any day now you'll see the first pre-flower.
Yea id have to agree with you. My outdoor plants have been growing for about 4 months and if you think about it, they wont start budding until sept.
