This is my first grow. I was growing in a greenhouse but the Colorado sun is to intense in the greenhouse so I moved them inside. I planted in March. Why haven’t they began to flower? Are they healthy?

Also the transition from natural light to artificial light can put stress on them as well. I believe they have a acclimation process out there that might help you with the switch.
The period of darkness is what initiates flowering for photoperiod plants. If you give them 12 hours of complete darkness then they will start to flower.
The changing of light cycle to 12/12 then back to 18/6 is very bad. It may stress out the plant so bad that it becomes a hermaphrodite. Inspect your plants daily to look for signs of pollen sacs - even if you see pistils on the plant. Usually if the plant encounters too much stress or an inconsistent light cycle in veg, you'll see both pistils and pollen sacs within the first 3 weeks of flowering. Although, really, it could happen at any point in flowering.
Yes. It will confuse the medium
your plant is looking good. You will need at least 12hour of light to flip them into flowering.
