Ok, so I was reading on strainhunters, and Franco said if you leave a plant in veg. on a 18/6 cycle, 2-3 months after it has already been in veg. state they develop pre-flowers sometimes. I was wondering if anybody has seen this phenomenon?
"Mother rooms are often kept at an 18-hrs light cycle, sometimes at a longer one, to promote vegetative growth. Depending on the strain(s) present in the room, light cycle can be adjusted to prevent flowering. Some strains, when kept on vegetative growth for longer than 2 or 3 months tend to start flowering, or to show pre-flowers and to slow down their vegetative growth. A good way to prevent this from happening is to increase the photoperiod from 18 to 20 hours per day."
