how do you go from grow cycle to flowering stage

It depends on the plant. Look up the plants photoperiod, or how to induce vernalization. Depending on the plant it can be very simple or very complicated. Start by making sure their is no ambient light during the night cycle.

Keep the lights on for 18-24 hrs during the grow cycle, then reduce lighting to twelve hours and it should flower on it's own.

Usually you go to 12 hours lights on to 12 off. Keep the room completely dark during the lights off hours.

You have to "cold stratify" the seeds first. Soak them in water for 24 hours. Then wrap them in a wet paper towel or a baggie of moist peat moss for 30 days. Keep them in the refrigerator and keep them moist. Then plant them in seed start pots (the peat moss kind or the plastic kind) and start growing. When they outgrow pot, plant in bigger pot. When they are sturdy, plant in the ground. It will take up to 3 years for the bush to produce blooms so if you are patient, it will be worth the wait.

Depends on where you live. I live in Ky and I can get it to grow spring and fall

yes you can by just dropping a seed into the grow medium but i chose to use jiffy plugs to start seeds in and transfer to hydroponic system after sprout.

I am not sure how to speed up the process. My advice would be to go to ehow.com and do a search on passion flowers. I know they have been very helpful with me for other varieties of plants that I have. You may also try houseplant chat this is a yahoo group. This group of people grow all kinds of houseplants and are eager to help newcomers. Hope this helps. Georgia

Choose your seeds I shop at farmers supply houses they sell to farmers for growing thus better quality seeds and more variety and cost lower. Next soak for 24 hours. Seed absorb water thus expanding and starting the growth process -- do not shorten the soak period or you lengthen the growing period. Place in tray darken area of tray for 30 hours seed grow naturaly in the ground it is dark under the soil. Then give it light sun or house lights works just fine for the sprout process. I place mine near the sealing in the room that the room light is on the most. Water daily. Enjoy.

It depends on where and when you grow them. If you grow them in summer or outdoors, about 60 days or so. If you do it indoors in winter like in Minnesota here, it takes much longer. It needs lots of light and warmer temps to grow well.

From what I know you would use a metal halide for flowering and a high pressure sodium for flowering for optimum results but I just use an HPS for both stages and it does just fine.

Zone 10 is best to grow Tumeric. You still can plant in the pot at zone 7, but you must bring inside when is below 30F

you have enough seed to do both. use about a fourth of the seed each time. this gives you the opportunity to plant several times

Follow the almanac as to when to plant. I do small alternating trays for juicing.
