oh yeah... Flowering.... that's when you change the light cycle from 18+ hours of LIGHT and 6 hours of DARK to 12 hours LIGHT and 12 hours DARK.... this 'causes the plant(female) to think that winter is coming so it trys to produce seeds 'cause it knows it is going to die... but since their is NO male plant around to fertilize the female plant.... the seeds never form and YOU are left with KIND BUD......
