Dwadashi until 17:00, inside pradosha; then Trayodashi. Trayodashi: 17:00 to 13:29 Fri.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dhanteras puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Trayodashi runs from 17:00 on Thu 12 Nov to 13:29 on Fri 13 Nov, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (16:23–19:12). No text giving Dhanteras’s time was found; pradosha is Tithika’s convention.
