Noob question about timeline

This is gorilla cookies just started week 5 of flower how much longer does it look luke it has to grow im not sure if a 12 week plant means 12 weeks all together or 5 weeks of veg and 12 weeks of flowering

It has quite a ways to go, you know you’re close when 90%+ of the pistils are red/brown and shriveled. Then wait another week or two. Also, NEVER EVER, believe the sellers estimates of flowering time (lol). Those are certainly not 12 weeks start to finish. It’s hard to say total time, depends on veg time.

There is no reason to count ” days / weeks or whatever “ …. You will find that plant will not finish according to some estimate.
You have lots of time left on her - she looks good. Just keep going as long as necessary for full maturity n

12 weeks mean just its time to start paying attention to the flowers from now on its all on you. Shortest flowering are usually indicas and they are around 70 days.for sativa its around 120 but each strain can go much more

Ty all for your insight

More than a month (seems to be my standard answer lately).

You might also want to get a tomato cage in there too, she's going to get fat.

Have fun

Breeders time lines on photo plants start once you introduce 12 12 lighting and the plant starts to stretch. Usually 3 day's to a week after lights are changed. Then remember, it's only a estimate
