Flowering times help

[aesthetics1990]

Hi,

I'm stuck on these veg time and flowering times

I was told that it takes 9 weeks roughly to complete from
Seed to smoke the weed

I'm doing cheese

I got cuttings at 2 weeks old

Put them in veg till they are about 2ft tall (18/6) - 4 weeks

Then it should only be about 3 or 4 weeks in flowering (12/12)

Is this right?

Now I see it's like 7 weeks on 12/12

I need some help thanks

Oh my cuttings were 2 weeks old and they are a good 30cm now in big pots only had them for 5 days

Thank you

Flower takes about 6-10 weeks, depending on the strain. Don't go by what you heard.

it really all depends on the strain the plant will tell you when its done

So it 7-9 weeks in 12/12?

Or 7-9 weeks from seeds to smoke?

Thanks

If you can find the breeders grow info, that would be the best way to get an idea. Otherwise, invest in a microscope. Definitely worth the investment.

7-9 from 12/12 but chances are it wont be 7 weeks, and it very well may go over 9 weeks

Not to quote Barbosa, but those are more like guildlines anyways. Don't go by what you heard. Listen to your plant.

I always thought it was from seed to smoke 7 weeks too. Well, I'm still growing her *sigh*

Oright so much for my 5 grows a year plan then

So it's going take a good 14-16 weeks from start to finish then

If you get clones veg 2 weeks, then flower at 12/12 for 7-12 weeks, till plants done, then hang for up to a week, then cure, then smoke.if no clones start seeds veg 4 weeks, flower, you get the point. You want 5 grows a year, if you can get clones buy some a few weeks apart and start flowering different times harvest more than once.

A good baseline is from seed 10 -14 days under low level light 4 weeks veg under hid 8 weeks of flower. Thats 14 weeks. Ive never known a plant to finish in 7 weeks of flower not to say that it cant. I usually harvest at the 9th week regardless unless the trichs arent even close. I like my high more up so i tend to harvest a little early. Many can go the full 11 weeks but my shit gives me couchlock at that time. It would definately be smart to get a scope to see your trichs.

Learn what you're doing before setting any long-term goals. A lot can happen in a year. Most guys with 5+grows/yr overlap grows or continuous grows. You can also try to grow plants from clones, this will speed it up and multiple grow rooms, or even by trying a strain that flowers more rapidly 45-55days.
