light cycle question

so my plants have been on a 24hrs of light cycle for about 2 months and im switching them over to flower and im pretty sure i cant just change it to 12/12 cause that will mess shit up. how fast to you think i can tone down the light and not shock them

so i can set my lights on time to 6am in the morning.ex, when im 18/6 lights come on at 6am and off at 12am. you want 12hrs at least of dark be4 you switch to 12/12, and that would only be 6 hrs for me. so i wait 24 hrs or more.

wow thats long for vegging, those plants must be pretty big. I had a small sativa clone a while back and switched it over from 18/6 to 12/12 right away. IDK about your 24 hours, i guess you might want to lower it to 18/6 for a few days and then go to 12/12 and see how it goes. Weed is a weed so it can take a hell of a lot of stress, and as long as your plants are ready to flower you shouldn't have any problems going directly from 24 hours to 12/12.

screw all the nonesense... Just switch your timer. put it to 12/12 and everything will be good. THE END.
