Strains like Mighty Mite are real big in Canada.

They can take a frost or two as the cannabis genetics are some of the oldest on earth. 250,000 years old. Back from the old days when shit was chill

lol 250,000 years old huh? something tells me its a lot older than that, humans have been around in one form or another for many millions of years. but that means not a whole lot, how long have palm trees been around? they will still freeze in canada, age of the genes doesn't detirmine how hardy the creature is. adapting to a cold climate will help, but most everything but conifers will be killed by the frost eventually.

to answer your question plants do not flower at 12/12, that is just a number used by indoor growers because it is short enough days to trigger flowering fast(within a week or two) but still long enough to ensure good bud development. also most bud will not mature at 14-10 even though they will start to bud under those hours, 12/12 allows them to finish budding in a reasonable amount of time.

outdoors your plants will start to flower from 16-14 hours of daylight, and the strain is completely dependent on when it starts to flower, not so much how long it flowers for.
