Flowering transition time?

I just read somewhere that when counting "days of flowering"
You don't start right when u switch to 12/12 rather wait two weeks then start the count. Which is true? Thanks

Anyone?

It seems like if I count days from flip a7 to 8 WK plant takes 9 to 11 wks.

I start cou ting when i start seeing pistles. Going from flip doesnt work. The older and more mature a plant is, the faster they flip.

I veg for 4 weeks from seed then switch to 12/12 for another 9 weeks. And I start counting the day I switch to 12/12,. Perfect smoke t every time. Try and filter. out the bullshit you hear about growing; you'll be better off.

I start counting the weeks once i do the switch to 12/12 or maybe wait a day or so for the plants to get up to spend that its flower time now.. plant will never finish on the exact date you put on your calendar.

it doesn't really matter when you start counting. the calendar doesn't decide when to harvest, the trichomes do...

Yep , only reason to keep up with start date is to have general idea when theyll be done.
Once you get to the end that goes out the window and it goes to the triches to determine ripeness.

Take a 2 wk old plant and a 6wk plant and flip the lights. Bet the 6wk shows pistles first every time.

your plants will not actually start having flowers for at least a week, generally people dont refer to their garden as flowering until there are flowers, not when u switch the schedule.


MOST cannabis takes 7-10 weeks to flower, this is calculated from when the plant actually has flowers. As many have said already the time a lady takes to start flowering varies.

Most strains are pretty consistent in the same environment. If your AK47 took 9 weeks (from when u first see flowers) it will generally take about the same every time if u dont change anything. This is not true of the TIME it takes for them to begin flowering, as hydrogreen has said there are many other factorss (size of plant, training, lighting, ect) that will make a plant begin flowering faster or slower, so measuring from when u go 12/12 is really not very effective.
