:) As said before, the plant will _not_ flower until it is sexually mature, you can't get around that with a lighting adjustment.
At this point, you really have nothing to lose by staying on 12/12. I would expect to see some changes soon, if you are 6 weeks from seed. Unfortunately, the 4 weeks of short days has definitely given you much smaller plants than you would have had on a more appropriate schedule.

Don't keep them on 12/12... I would expect about a quarter oz per plant (if that) if you flower now.
You should throw them back on an 18 of light/6 hours of dark light cycle to continue the vegging process. Not only will this increase yield by allowing your plant to develop more nodes, (or budding sites as I sometimes like to call them) but it will cause 'secondary budding', which also helps yield. Depending on your equipment, amount of time re-vegging, and quality of plant care, you could pull off an oz. per plant.
I'm sorry if I missed this in the post (I looked) but what kind of lights are you using? and what's the wattage?

what advice would you give me pimp......do you think i should stay on 12/12 or should i put the plants on 18/6 for a week or two just to get some veg in...or should i drop the light down to 8 hours and 16 dark to try and the plants bud....bear in mind my plants are 6 weeks old and about 8ins tall....i ask you as your pic looks good(i know you done 18/6)...what you think?

lots of growers are fond of 12/12 from seed...but, I never paid any attention to the results......google:...'12/12 from seed'...see what it says?...:stoned:
I veg 30 days..flower 10-12 weeks

i think fad has said some good thing about starting the veg now then i might get a second bite at the cherry........its just the stress factor of put a 12/12 grow on 18/6........thanks fad never thought of that in this way
when should i start to bloom
im using a 600 watt light which at the moment is about a foot and half (18ins)above the plants.....
when should i start to bloom
should i just the timer or should i leave them in 24 hour darkness first before the change

I give up.... You have plenty of good advise, have ignored my question to you, and have not read since you still don't even know the most basic of terms. Now you're on your own as far as I'm concerned. Good luck with all that.
