"I am new to this hobby and currently reside in an area that isn't particularly friendly towards cannabis cultivation. However, I came across some random seeds and decided to give growing a try. Out of the 30 seeds I planted, only 3 managed to survive. To cut the long story short, two of them are flourishing quite well, while the third plant appears healthy but remains small in size.

For my grow setup, I utilized a hydroponic system and a 200w LED spotlight. Both the pH level and the ppm (parts per million) are within the appropriate range, indicating that everything is going smoothly. However, I recently noticed early signs of flowering, with two white hairs starting to emerge. It has been 36 days since I initially planted the seeds. Now, my main question is whether it's worth attempting to reverse the flowering process. If not, should I switch the light cycle to a 12/12 schedule?

As for my second question, I took clones of the plants 10 days before spotting any signs of flowering. The clones seem to be in good condition and still alive, but I haven't noticed any root development yet. Is there a chance that they will eventually root? Obtaining seeds is challenging for me, so cloning is currently my only hope. Please provide some guidance.
