Plants typically need around 8-12 hours of uninterrupted darkness in order to initiate the blooming process. This period of darkness allows the plant to produce the hormone responsible for flowering. Any disruption to this dark period can delay or inhibit blooming.
Yes, poinsettia plants need plenty of indirect sunlight to thrive. Place them near a window where they can receive at least six hours of light each day. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can cause the leaves to burn.
Outdoor yucca plants may not bloom due to insufficient sunlight, inappropriate watering, or lack of proper fertilization. Ensure your yucca plant receives at least 6 hours of sunlight daily, water it moderately, and use a low-nitrogen fertilizer to promote blooming. Also, avoid over-fertilizing as this can hinder flowering.
Flowers bloom for a short time in order to attract pollinators to aid in reproduction. Once the flower has fulfilled its purpose of pollination and fertilization, it may begin to wither and die. This cycle allows for the continuation of the plant species.

Chrysanthemums typically bloom in the late summer to fall, depending on the plant variety and location. They require long nights to trigger flowering, so they often bloom when daylight hours start to decrease in the fall.
Plants that require more than six hours of sun per day, which is also referred to as day length and a short day plant is a plant that needs long periods of darkness before it can bloom
Red poinsettias typically bloom during the winter months, specifically around November and December. They are often associated with the holiday season, particularly Christmas. Gardeners may encourage blooming by providing the plant with 12-14 hours of darkness each day leading up to the bloom period.
Critical night length refers to the minimum uninterrupted period of darkness required to induce a specific response in plants, such as flowering. It is used to determine the photoperiodic response of a plant. When the critical night length is exceeded, certain physiological processes are triggered in the plant, leading to changes in growth, development, and flowering based on the duration of the dark period.
daylight hours - its called photoperiodism
Poinsettias and chrysanthemums are short day plants. They need a certain number of hours of uninterrupted darkness to cause the plant to start flowering. Poinsettias need 18 hours of darkness to trigger this. Chrysanthemums need twelve hours of darkness.
In order for marijuana to bud you would have to change the amount of light your plant gets throughout the day. You have to allow the plant to be in complete darkness for 12 hours out of the day, so 12 hours light / 12 hours dark. if the plant is getting 24 hours of light it is just going to keep growing. so change the light cycle and you will have buds.
The center of the plant (crown) is where the new growth appears, if plant is in darkness it will cease to produce more leaves and they won't bloom. Also, plant will eventually have a faded color verses green and vibrant.
Keep the plant in total darkness for 12 hours and in light for 12 hours and continue this process for 6 to 8 weeks.
12 hours complete darkness,12 hours light....thats about it really
