    Abrupt is the way to do it. You can either just switch straight to 12/12 or some people like to leave the lights off for 24 hrs then switch to 12/12. No reason to be concerned just make the switch it's part of the process. And I wouldn't suggest using a 3500 k bulb when you flower. Look for something closer to 2700k. It will produce more light in a usable spectrum for your plant then the 3500k. Btw what kind of light? Cfl? t8 floros?

    I would go for 2100k HPS instead and just switch to 12/12.
