Quick explaination of outdoor flowering. After the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, which is June 21/22 the days start to get shorter. As days get shorter the plants are naturally triguered to start flowering, which is for most of the northern hemisphere between mid july and mid august. 12&12 is just a trick you can play on the plants to make them flower artificially. It's what the indoor guys do whenever they decide. You should be harvesting 8 to 10 weeks from when your plants start to flower. Which will be from mid September to late October.
I live in Cali too, and I have all of my plant in flower right now; although I planted my greenhouse ones in March,so they're big as trees and growing over the tops of my fence with buds all on them. It's just genetics in some plant that will still flower even under long light treatments.I planted my 2 girls about a month ago and i live in the bay area..... NOw they have hairs as if they were budding ... I keep giving it grow big right now but should i be giving it stuff for flowering... The reason i ask is because i thought it wasnt going to bud until september when the time changes but maybe im worng ... PLease someone help and give a friend some advice?
