Started my seeds about a month ago. 2 seeds - 2 sprouts just showed pistils on both plants!

So when do I consider day 1 of flowering? 1 set of pistis? 10? It's been 6 days now and almost all of my tops (doing lst) are showing pistils) I think it doesn't really matter of o know what day 1 is because I'll harvest when they " look" done anyway. Just looking for opinions.

Specs on grow: 4x 26w cfl in a pc grow case. 1 bag seed and 1 satellite Cindy.

If you started them at 12/12 then you flowered from seed (not a great method imo). Just my opinion but even twenty day veg with increase yield significantly. I've been quite dissapionted the few times I did it. Auto's will yield more I think.

some people say they get several zips this way and faster then waiting I guess it really depends you might need a certain strain and certain conditions but I myself am sick of waiting 4 months. however the one in the pic don't look that big at all I cant really see that producing much bud

if 12/12 from seed i'd consider it when you see the pistils b/c it takes about 3wks for the plant to mature anyways..thats what i do on mine..im growing about 5 like that...this method is really only good if you have many plants in a small space and dont have room for the growth that vegging the plant would bring b/c it decreases yield greatly..its easier for me bc i have a small closet grow, to grow 10 plants 12/12 and get the same amount as if i did a regular veg for a mnth on 2 plants that would take up more space...just from my exp. so far

I count flowering start after its done stretching. I think that's the best way. If you count from light flip and its not sexually mature (showing pistils) its going to force it into sexual maturity but that can take 7-10 days (ish). After stretch its usually pretty close to the breeders flowering timelines.

4 months! What strain are you doing to wait that long? I typically veg 3 weeks and flower for 8-10 weeks with most. But yup strain dependant for sure

yea it took the bag seed 4 weeks to show pistils, it was much bushier than the satellite cindy i also have growing which showed pistils at 3 weeks. reason im doing 12/12 from seed is because i am limited on space. It actually turned out quite well although I am already planning on a bigger grow box.
