does the summer solstice start a 12 hours of light and darkness cycle? if not when does it naturally occur. if it helps any it is in the south eastern USA.

summer solstice is the longest day of the year, the amount of day light will start to decrease after this by about 2 min a day. but this is for the uk, id assume it would be the same there.
doest make too much difference i ahve noticed, cause if got some plants out side and they have been growing for about 7-8 weeks now and some of them are starting to show sex. which is strange cause they dont normally do this for another month or so.
