Switch to flowering (12/12 flip)

A photoperiod plant is switched to flowering by hand when you are ready: the app records the flip day and rebuilds the nutrition calendar and harvest date. Autoflowers bloom by age and need no flip.

Also called

switch to flowering · start flowering · flip to flower · flip · 12/12 · go to 12/12 · move to bloom · start bloom · from veg to flower · end of veg · flowering stage

Where it is

  1. Bottom menu → “Plants” → tap the plant’s card → the “🌸 Switch to flowering” card under the top buttons
  2. or “Today” → the plant’s stage advice (when it suggests the flip)

The mobile and desktop versions are the same: the app runs at growscope.uk/app/ as a single column with a bottom menu of four tabs — “Today”, “Plants”, “Tent”, “Comparison”. Settings open from the avatar at the top right; the Archive opens from “Comparison”. On a computer the only difference is that features needing the phone’s camera, motion sensor or Bluetooth should be run from a phone.

Requirements

  • A plant of type “Photoperiod” in seedling or veg

How to use it

  1. Open the plant card.
  2. In the “Switch to flowering” card tap “Switch to flowering →” (on a balcony without blackout — “Mark start of flowering →”).
  3. Pick the flip day (today or as planned) and answer whether to set the tent light to 12/12.
  4. Confirm.

Result

The flip day is saved, the tent light is set to 12/12 (if you agreed), the nutrition calendar and expected harvest date are recalculated from that day.

If you can’t see it

  • No card — the plant type is “Autoflower” or “Not determined”: change “Plant type” to “Photoperiod” via “✎ Edit”.
  • The plant is already flipped (the card disappears after the flip) or already flowering by age.
  • Light hours can be changed separately: “Tent” → “Equipment” → “Light hours”.
