Females Flowering Early

[Naycha]

I think it's more complicated than plants waiting till 12/12 to flower outdoors.  12/12 is just the most common flowering photoperiod used in indoor growing imo.

I agree naysonic I think it's when they realise there losing light not a specific photo period cuase I'm still getting well over 13 h a day still ,, I'm sure if u slowly did your hours down from 14 a day at 2 mins a day possibly they culd bud at 13 h a day ... All new to me but sounds like the plant isn't stupid realises times ticking down and goes fhk this ill finish my cycle before the shit comes

12/12 is used indoors because, pretty much, any commercial strain will flower under 12/12.

 

Outdoors you don't have to wait until 12/12 is reached (around the 21st of March), indica doms require around 9-10 hours of uninterrupted darkness to trigger the shift to flowering... sativas a bit longer. I'm in NE Vic... here cannabis plants begin to flower between the end of January and the end of February and finish between April and June.
