I'm not sure if flowers have lighting requirements that other fish don't but I would turn off the house lights at night as you normally would when you turn in.

I actually bought a 24/7 light from finnex that I just leave on all day. It changes the light amount through out the day to simulate a real day. You have low dawn light in the morning, high light mid-day, and then blue light for evening.

Not that I've noticed. Because of the 24/7 feature it's not very bright for much of the day and it eases into the changes so you don't have the sudden turn on a light problem.
