Hi everyone- happy summer
Does anyone have any knowledge or experience to share on what the best way to transition from 18/6 to 12/12?
Goal is -quality #1- quantity #2
Should I leave the time the lights are currently coming on and shut off 6 hours earlier?
Have the lights come on 6 hr later?
Go midway and subtract 3 hours of light early and 3 hours later?
Completely switch the dark and light times and subtract 6?- I imagine this would cause the most shock to the plant.
Thanks for your help.

Well this is great advice however i was asking if there are any nuances to the switch.
If you are saying it doesn’t matter- ok
please just say so- obviously I know how to physically change the timer.
Why is everyone so mean?
Kindness goes a long way-
Never mind

The answer to your question is no the timer change doesn't matter just alter the timer to suit your convenience.

By the way- I choose kindness because I survived a widowmaker heart attack-
Not because i am a pussy millennial
When you stare death in the eye someday- you will see what i mean.
