I count flowering from the day you start 12/12 lighting.

When to Flower
Indoors, growers force marijuana to flower at any time. Even seedlings will indicate sex and produce flowers given the right conditions. Marijuana flowers in response to the light cycle. Under natural conditions, the plant senses oncoming autumn by chemically measuring the uninterrupted dark period. Indoors, when the light regimen includes a dark period of 10-12 hours each day, the plant stops its vegetative growth cycle and starts growing reproductive organs, male and female flowers, which usually occur on separate plants.
Here are the stages of flower growth.
1. Slowdown then stop of vegetative growth. 4-10 days after beginning forcing. Lasts up to a week.
2. Appearance of first flowers. 10 days to 15 days after beginning forcing.
3. Massive growth of flowers at the budding sites. Continuing after the first appearance of flowers for 30 to 40 days. During this time the buds develop
and take shape. Starting with a few flowers, layer after layer of flowers is grown until the bud sites are merged together into one large cola.
4. Maturation. Eventually the pistils start to turn color from pale white to red or brown At the same time the flowers close up, forming false seed pods. The small glands on the flowers now start to grow. These are called stalked capitate glands and are composed of a tiny stalk supporting a thin clear membrane. As THC is produced near the site, the membrane swells with the potent liquid. The membrane stretches and the gland takes on the appearance of a mushroom. When the glands have swelled and the pistil has receded into the false pod, the bud is ready to pick.

i have no mean to be rude n plz do not take this offesivly this is just my opinion , but if i told u that tomarrow there would be 1,000,000 on ur dor step would u believe me??? i kinda think u would because thats what u did with this guy..
why would FLOWER start when FLOWERS or BUDSITES havent even been produced yet or shown??? its like a race between 2 people 1 starts a lil later n there both running the same speed that same one will finish a lil later.
BUT than again its the PLANT not the BUDS that matters the plant sex is determined since the day the seed was made and the resins will be produced no matter what as long as theyve been in 12/12 for wat ever amount of time maybe the buds will be a lil smaller but the THC content will be the same
I unno that all juss ran through my head right now so i really dnt know anymore

No disrespect taken budda luva. Flowering starts with the change of the length of the day. This is the signal to the plant to switch from growth to bud development. You are right that the buds don't form for 10 days after 12/12 starts, but when seed companies talk about flowering time they are referring to the days of 12/12 lighting.
What's important is to watch the buds themselves. Each seed can vary in how long it takes to finish. Plus growers make mistakes (see ALL of my journals for examples
), these mistakes can extend the time needed for mature buds.

Hey Token, just stopping in to wish you well! A friend of mine gave me a "Garden of Ease" hydro setup and I have an organic soil plant that I plan to take clones from to use in the hydro setup. It's still in veg, but it's DEFINITELY a female, so I'll keep you posted on the 4 'dro babies as things unfold.

This plant is doing great so far, the leaves are really neonish green and growing anywhere from 1/4" to 3/4" a day
