Does going 12-12 for 5 or 6 days force flowering?

So I had transplanted my biggest plant recently and kept it in a room where there's a big ass window with lots of sunlight. I cant keep it with the other plants under the LEDs cuz there is not a lot of space for the pot and the power goes out a lot. I keep all the plants in the window room during the day cuz they seem to love the sunlight a lot and move the ones I didnt transplant back to the bulbs. I've been using an almost 24-0 light cycle up until this point and I try to do the same with the plant in the window room. I would turn on the light in that room, though its not very strong I think its bright enough to keep the plant from flowering since I wanna go for a full 60 days or even more before flowering. The plants are growing slower than what I see online and dont know if its due to genetics since theyre bagseed or if I'm just not that great of a grower. I got 3 plants are around 47 days old and two 4 week old seedlings. The problem though is that the power went out at night a few times and the plants are getting around 12 hours of darkness. I keep an emergency light and put that onto the smaller plants because its more convenient than keeping it on the transplanted one. Its been like this for almost a week and now the power is more consistent. Would flowering have already began and if so should I continue 12-12 to avoid turning the plant into a potential hermie or will it be find to put it back onto 24-0.

Yes as plants reacted to going from 24/0 to straight 12/12, if you step em down say 16/8, and then 12/12 the hormonal response is slower .
Clones are fully matured and they flip faster then say seed.

But seeds will be fine usually as they don’t sexually mature till about 3-4 months on life cycle so I think you are safe but try to keep more then 14 hrs of light until fully mature to say flower

Great, I was really scared of an early flower. I'll definitely keep the plants under longer periods of light from now on. Thanks 🤜🤛
