HELP QUICK! Can I switch back from 12/12?

OG Kush been vegging under 4ft T5's for 2 weeks 24/7. Getting different opinions. I flipped them on Friday at about a foot tall. One guy said to flip 'em now. Another who is actually growing this strain said to let 'em veg for another couple weeks under the HPS then flip.
Can I flip them back to veg schedule (18/6) under the HPS without stressing them out or screwing them up?

My first post so heres what I've got.
4X8 tray, 2X 1000HPS, 16 plants, 3gal pots.

Please help!!!

if it was this friday it will not take that long...

its not even a week 12/12

push them to 24/0 for couple of days, or whole veg cycle they will grow faster.

no problem

depends on the strain but yes if it is flowering already it might need to revert to veg which can take weeks or a month

if it hasn't started flowering then it could just continue vegging as though no light change happened.

I would just keep em flipped and take some lower clones and just veg those longer next time, if it were me that is.

I'd probably leave em flipped, you have enough watts there to get a super harvest from the 16 1ft tall plants that will most likely almost double in size in a week or so anyway,you'd be better with shorter plants first time,gives you room for manouvre if they try to outgrow your room in flower, nowt worse than burning the tops due to height restrictions. Just my 2 cents, hope you work it out bro.

I grow SOG style and put the clones straight on to 12/12, no veg time at all and get an ample harvest.

However if you really wanted to go back to 18/6 it shouldn't be a problem. Most plants don't respond to the light regime change until about 2 weeks after the flip. I take clones 2 weeks into 12/12 no problems.

I would just keep them on 12/12 if I was you. Got to think about the stretch. How big do you want them? Have you got enough light for large plants?
