its not rocket science - its called “ flip “ for a reason.
Yes some do gradual cycle changes but unnecessary in most situations. No need to clutch pearls.

After switching to 12/12, you should still continue veg nutrients for another 2 weeks or so, then transition to "bloom" nutrients depending on your medium and feeding style, etc

I completely understood what you were asking and I answered you with the best possible answer. If you were looking for a different answer then perhaps you should have asked a different question.

By the way - I have already had successful grows simply having the lights turn off 6 hours earlier than the 18/6 cycle- i was just asking if there was a better way for my next grow going into flower. There are so many nuances- I figured there may be someone with a proven method. Maybe not-

You need to increase wattage as well to stay at a somewhat equal DLI
The flower transition gets aided by warmth (don't have it too cold)

@Bud man 43 - everyone that chimed in on timer change is correct , my answer is the same.
Try not to read to much into reply. @PopAndSonGrows also added some good advice after you flip.

Not only did I give you the best advice, you agreed and told me I gave you great advice the continued to call me an asshole in 3 separate posts. You have some serious issues.

Different techniques- like gas lantern and such are individual choices - not set in stone.
Many run 16/8 after 18/6 then12/12 to 11/13 and so on. As they try to mimic seasonal changes in light. But there is a point of cycle manipulation that can set off some wonky growth . Stick to the basics.

Proven method.
Unplug timer from outlet.
Change timer from 18/6 to 12/12.
Plug timer back into outlet.
You're welcome.

What does any of that have to do with changing the light schedule?
