The point being, had he started Vegging 2 months before flowering he would get more joints.
Why is it necessary to put 3 inch seedlings under 18/6 ?

this is exactly what you do. it 100% will keep your seedling from going into flower when you put it outside. i do everything indoors for security but growing up my parents grew outdoors and started there seeds inside. even in my indoor setup the first 7-10 days i only run 12/12 but for a different reason. i germinate under my 315 cmh. lil bit stronger than the spring time sun lol

It would be nice to know the particulars of the article he quotes.
I always start mine under lights so I dont understand the question. Hardening off is a given.

I would put small stakes and tie them up. they need support.

Bury the stalk, tying that would be dumb.

there's a certain spectrum emitted towards the end of the day that triggers the 'dark cycle' an hour or two before its actually dark outside, which is one reason a plant may start flowering even if theres 14 hours of light.

I cut about a 10" piece of clothes hangar wire and use that for a stake. Then I take a wire bread tie and use it to secure the stalk to the stake. Always worked for me.

Possible it doesn't like the sun. Seeds sprouted in the sun will be hardened off to them. Seedlings under I door lighting will need to be hardened off over a few days.
