  1. If you want your plant to flower (bud) , you need to reduce the light exposure to 12 hours.  Outdoors will do this naturally as after June 21st (longest day of the year), the hours of the day begin to decrease.  This causes a plant response (to begin flowering) called photoperiodism.

    Anyway, unless you're trying to grow plants bigger (vegetative growth) you have too many hours.  

    So, set your timer for 12 hours on, 12 hours off and you'll see some change in a week or two.

    Good Luck


  2. I've said it before, and I will say it again: you need to find yourself a successful grower who will mentor you.

    The difference between mediocre and Zowie!!!!! is in the precise timing schedule for lighting, feritlization, soil prep, and watering, throughout every phase of your plant's short life. You will also be taught propagation techniques so that you may continue superior strains of plant and continually re-evaluate and discard inferior or weakened lines.

    It is not the lighting alone. The plant requires a simple, but strict, regimen, for optimum health and production.  

  3. To get it to bud start cutting the light time down gradually and reducing the temp.  This is the way nature does it.  As the days get shorter and the temps cooler the buds will start to show.
