You will notice my last sentence. I don't count time on plants. I try to help new growers understand how these plants grow, and what signs to watch for to be able to tell what the plants are doing.

I don't know what "breeders" you spoke to, but it makes zero sense biologically to count flower time from 12/12 switch. Some growers still do it, but some growers do lots of things. The important thing is learning how the plants grow, and that they are on their own time frames.

Plants outside aren't flowering until they start flowering, there is no magical light switch that someone flips. Well growing inside isn't any different in this case. The "transition" time is a well documented part of plant growth, sometimes it's referred to as the "preflower stage" (not to be confused with physical pre-flowers). But this period is labeled on nutrient schedules, and in plant growth studies.

my light switch is my dark tarps and hoop houses thank you very much.

Agreed otherwise though. Also calyx swelling and hair receding is a better indication of finished than trichromes are IMO.

Hehe yeah, light deep greenhouse is just barely growing outside. Definitely an awesome option to take advantage of the sun and the ability to control the environment :). I’ve got 2 gmo plants in a spring light deep right now.

I totally agree that stigma shrinking and bracts swelling are major signs of maturity and should be looked for first. All about reading the signs the plants give us. I havnt checked trichomes in years.

I do it without a green house. I like outdoor weed a lot actually. At least when the season is good. You do need a little more luck. But some of the best weed I ever grew came from outside doing this.

I had 11 weeks from flip on my last blueberry, I weaned it off too soon but she is incredibly smooth and reeks of blueberries. The one sativa leaning pheno was awesome, made my lips go numb for a minute like clockwork and improved my brain function, or so it lead me to believe at the time, lol

This girl is the closest thing I've had to my old blueberry from 2002. Grape and blueberry smells and taste, beautiful colors and nice heavy indica leaning flowers. Well indica leaning in the effect of stone. This is a cross of a blue dream leaning pheno from another cross of mine pollinated by a grapes 13 male. I call her grape sato and her colors and smell are Dj's blueberry, she is the great great grandma of sato.

Like most these fellas is saying (in my opinion) I start counting the time till harvest as soon as I see pistils... . . I grow outdoors also. . .

No, they are "big bud" but if your talking about time it's the same thing. . I've been growing this strain for a few years now so I know it's 10 weeks of bud. .

I see a nanner. Your DJ Short's is hermiing?
I had a harvest then revegged and reflowered. I need to delete the meta-data then can post pics. I think she's only got 1.5 weeks left. I grew organic but still managed to nute burn her and lost quite alot of leaves, she has been feeding heavy and pretty happy. Blueberry that I have came from Arctic (where before Idk) but it smells and tastes exactly like blueberry.

That is about right for his blueberry, he (DJ Short) always went for taste over yield and super high thc. The high thc craze with 20+% is fairly recent, not saying that there weren't high thc strains just that wasn't always the focus. High thc isn't the end all imo, 15-17% with some cbd is perfect for me. I would much rather have a beautiful plant that taste great than an OK taste but 25%.

Bro if you can find it, the purple urkle would blow your mind. I had some from the clone over in Texas. Best strain other than blue satellite. Best tastes, terps, and buds.
