Do u count week 1 as the first week of flower or transition?

Is week one flower a transition week or do you count it as week one?

It don't matter counting weeks, just harvest when it's ready

Kind of a transition week ... 7-10 days

Ya I know it doesn't matter jw what everyone does I'm at week three using advanced with extras that are called for during different weeks as far as they go they count it the day they switch the light and res nutes

I used to count flowering at the flip but now I'm leaning more towards counting from when pistils begin to develop. Seems more accurate to me considering it seems every plant needs 2-3 more weeks...always!

From the flip 63 days and I do every strain for that length with no issues

you are getting amber or ,mostly cloudy @ 63 days from flip? what strain? You must have your shit dialed in right

Every strain I never go longer than 63 and I have Sativa's that will be like 80/20 cloudy/ amber when I pull but overall ya 9 weeks for any of the 30+ strains I have

I count from flip. That way you know exactly how long it took instead of this was 12 days plus 50 and this was 8 days plus 44 or whatever. Just be aware not everyone does this. I have seen pics saying 3weeks in flower of these huge colas and am like sure whatever.

Right lol I'll see someone post 3 weeks and it looks like 6 all cause they don't actually count from the flip

flowering starts first day of 12/12
or when critical night length is reached per genetics assuming a facultative photoperiod hasnt been instigated


this isn't an opinion btw

Cool thank you qwiz just wanted to be sure I'm on track first dwc hydro grow

well if you're following a schedule that counts flower from day 1 of the switch then do that of course

Personally, I've been counting stretch and flower separately.
With the strains I've grown to now the seedbank flower times are closer to how long my plants take. So it helps me be patient in waiting out the good time for harvest haha

If it doesnt match breeder times that may be on you, they probly have More experience a more controlled environment and very possibly they give the time of the fastest in thebatch as is common when giving an estimated cannabinoid content

however its not an accurate representation of flower when mentioning flower times. say you take off 10 days from flip and it flowered in 49 days. this may help keep up your patience but know that when discussing flower times and strains it flowered 59

I'm at week 3 day 5 and there still stretching holy grail blue dream the mob has slowed and liberty haze and gsc still going a Lil hope I have enough room

Count from the flip. Well that's what breeders tell me and I'm normally done within their time with maybe an extra week needed sometimes.

Thanks I got around 6 weeks left then hopeing i have enough space filling out super quick
