Hey Jimmy!
"my first question is i have recently transplanted a plant into a bigger pot, i was wondering how long should i wait before i put into flowering, should i wait a few days, a week or do it straight away?"
You can go into flower at any time after transplanting, I vary between seconds to weeks. I've read people talk about transplant shock but I've never had it, there are many other things that could be wrong with the plant on transplant - bad PH in the new medium being the first that comes to mind. Make sure that your new medium is the same PH as your old, and that the other variables are the same.
Keep the freshly transplanted further away from the light and make sure that the older, smaller, root ball is fully saturated
after the transplant is done. Just common sense.
Kali Mist is a strain that must be put into flower early or it will overgrow your room, I've put them in flower at 3" and have had 3' plants. Smaller indicas may not stretch much in flower and must be vegged to near desired finished height, so the process is strain dependant.
You're at your 7th node, seems thick stemmed and leaves so probably indica dominant - what strain?

"i have some autoflower seedlings that i will have to put in with the flowering plant, which means they will be on 12/12 has anyone done auto's on 12/12 before? and wahat was the outcome?"
The autos will flower fine but the yield will be decreased and flower time increased. Less energy per day means less production, simple math but not linear.
Don't worry about it, just throw them in. I ran my flower garden on 6 light / 18 dark this summer to cut down on heat, and to see what would happen. I've also ran autos on 12/12. No big deal, just what we'd expect for less energy into a system.
