are you guys using early genetics?cause october 1-7 strains wont be showing yet....maybe preflowers....
i have 2 autos that are flowering and almost done and the rest are different kushs. i dont have flowers yet they just hit the growth spirit before they start flowering

I'm in Southern Ontario, none of my 5 are flowering yet. Looks like it could happen in the next week or so.

Like everyone said it really depends on location and strain, most of mine flip in August, most are stretching now , I have a few that are really early as they are getaway strains that have been bred for early flowering in a similar climate

I
Theres still 14.5 hours of sunlight a day in mid Ontario... seems a little to high to promote flower
It is very strain dependent and also most locations don't receive direct light 14.5 hours a day unless your fortunate enough to grow in an open field

I have a few plants gone into flower a week or so ago, most haven't. Have a couple plants that have been flowering for a few weeks already. It varies due to how much shade my plants get might put em in flower sooner, or genetics not used to here flowering early.

I am also in S Alta and have experimented with many strains outdoor.The only ones I have luck with are Dr.Greenthumbs IAF and its crosses.The strait Iranian Autoflower will all finish on time here, the crosses are about 50/50. This year I have 4 of his crosses, two are flowering two are not.Alberta is a tough place to grow outside!

The flavor of the IAF is not my favorite, I am fussy.The yield is all over the place . I have got as little as 3/4 oz up to one time 21oz.I start inside in March .IAf x c99 I have had good luck with. IAF x ogkush problems with early flowering .AFx diesel also 50/50 flowering in Aug..I am also running Dr.Greenthumbs Gold mine, one is flowering one is not. I bring them in my green house in Oct . Those IAF strains can easily handle being snowed upon and up to -4 or- 5 as long as it warms up in the day. Super tough, don't mind bits of cold.Freezing even, especially in the ground,as apposed to a pot.
