| We are doing about the same thing. I had thread on it a couple weeks ago. Some guy on here put flowering plants outdoors in late spring, and they flowered all summer. So, we dug up a runt female that was flowering outside, and brought it in under 18-6 lighting. The first week and a half it didnt do a thing. But now the bud is swelling like crazy. New white hairs popping out everywhere. BUT, we did it as an experiment. If you have a healthy plant that you want to harvest, I would def leave it alone. The bottom line is you are telling the plant to veg, not flower. | ||

| getting roughly 12/12 is what makes your plant flower... dont bring it inside for 24/0

| Still, I would not move it or mess with the lighting in any way. It will slow the growth of the plant, and possibly stop flowering completely if it is done enough. The change in environment will slow growth, much less the light change. The most important nutrient you can give a plant is patience! Especially when it is close to harvest time. | ||

| I've NEVER heard giving your flowering plant 24 hours of light is beneficial. Frankly, I'd think it'd hurt a flowering plant.
