Question about light and cannabis?

Cannabis needs light, and if you have a 12/12 hour (or less) light-dark cycle, the plants will begin to flower, or flower prematurely. But what counts as "light"? Is it enough for the plants to receive minimal light to prevent them from flowering, or does light only mean when the sun is actually shining?

‘Light’ is daylight at sun as well as at clouding. Whoever wants to do good to his plants gives them 18 hours (indoor). Outside in spring and summer you give as much as the daylight gives.

To blossom, the plant must get about 12 hours of permanent darkness over at least three weeks.
The plants are darkened outside with large cardboard boxes or black plastic bags or darkened during indoor installation without switching on the light source. Disorders with light incidence – outside as inside – can take the plant badly.

Light is not equal to light. For the blood phase, you also need a different spectrum than for the growth phase. So another lamp with the desired parameters. I think… When you go indoors… Don’t count three plants. Losses due to power consumption I mean.

And if you want the plant to grow… Must be over 12 h light guaranteed. Minimum as you think is not going. In nature, the night is never dark.
