Critical Kush >> Can somebody tell me how long this plant should be kept in vegetative mode? On their website, they have this information posted :

CRITICAL KUSH™ Cannabis Seeds Specifications
Type: Feminised
Photoperiod: Normal
Cultivation: Indoor/outdoor
Genetics: Critical Mass x OG Kush
Effect: Relaxation and pain relief
Indoor Yield (g): 650 gr/m²
Flowering Time (days): 55 - 60
Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month: September
Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month Week: 3rd-4th week



Height (cm): 100/110cm
Height Indoor (cm): 110cm
Indica %: 100%
Medical: No

You'll notice I highlited (red) the Flowering Time. My understanding of this field is that this is how long it should stay in flowering mode before you can harvest it.

But how long should it be kept in vegetative mode, before you switch it to flowering mode?

Don't take this the wrong way, but if you're asking a question like that, I don't know if you're ready to start growing. Flowering time is an approximate estimate on how long to keep the plant under 12/12 until you harvest it, breeds typically advertise 7-14 days less than you should probably do.

As far as in veg, you could flower it from seedling, it doesn't matter, only dependent on the available amount of space you have and time you're willing to provide the plant with.

"a question like that"?

Well don't take this the wrong way, but I didn't ask for your opinion on whether or not I'm "ready to start growing". If you can't handle the reality that not everybody has attained your knowledge, maybe you shouldn't be participating in threads like this.

I registered on this website specifically for the sole purpose of asking questions. If that bothers you, rather than giving an unsolicited opinion on whether or not I should be growing....maybe just ignore the thread.

Cheers.

Christ buddy, take a toke. I answered your question. It's not "my knowledge" it's common knowledge. Don't express frustration with me for suggesting you do more reading before embarking in this hobby... this kind of question could be answered with a google search in a fraction of the time you took to make this post, it's basic, basic, basic stuff that you should have an understanding of before even germinating a seed.

It's a great, easy strain to grow btw. Do it right and you won't be disappointed.

Good luck.

That is an estimate for a plant grown in near perfect conditions with a healthy nutrient diet and any Critical cross that I have done has been ready at 60-65 days flower.

Had a similar experience, I actually have 3 plants drying right now. Smells fantastic and am looking forward to tallying my pull from them, I'm thinking 3-4 oz per plant.

As far as I have read, veg until the plants are 3/4 the size you can handle, then flip to flower. Plants need to develop a root system and so that takes some time ( Strain & method dependent), also you need to develop some foliage to feed the buds. As an estimate 3-4 weeks of veg is enough, again strain and method dependent.

Your going to need a thicker skin around here dude. Just let it slide off....
The truth is, There is at least as much opinion as knowledge around here!

Let me give you 2 simple rules of "thumb".

You veg to 50/66% of your desired finish size......The stretch in the first few weeks of bloom will take care that. Sativa's more so!

The next is that you will do better to add 10 - 14 days to any breeder report of bloom time...

Have fun.
