By latewood ILGM ,25 Feb 2019Flowering indoors occurs when you induce flowering by changing the photo period from 18/6 to 12/12. Simple as that. Feel free to join our forum where we can help guide you through your grow successfully. Happy growing, :)

By latewood ILGM ,23 May 2019Toni, you can look in on your grow during the dark hours but, you cannot turn on the light. Interruption of the dark period can cause plants to hermaphrodite, although this is more Prominent during flower.
