i'm in my second week (16 day) of switching from 18/8 to 12/12 and my plants haven't shown any signs of flowering. I've kinda speed up the process because of my small grow area. They've grew taller and more leafy but no signs that the 12/12 cycle. Should i be worried or should I wait a little longer before I start making judgements?

It will happen! It always happens - there's no way it can't happen! UNLESS - you have a light leak or your timer is not working... with 12 hours of darkness per day they will flower. Patience my friend!

In the future - if you are not doing a perpetual grow - give them 36 hours of darkness when you make the flip. This sends your plants a definite signal to flower.

plants dont start budding for 2-3 weeks depending on the strain. I don't even peel my lights back, just boom, 12/12.
