All mine started flowering 4 weeks ago and I have 6 different strains,so does that mean an early harvest? or a long harvest????

Just starting to see the first signs of flowering on my plant.

But I do have a question. At what time is the plant officially in the flowering phase? Like from what day do you start counting as the first day of flowering? Is it the first sign of flowers? After that? I'm concerned that I'm not gonna have enough time for the buds to fully mature before it gets too cold out. But if they start flowering now (or in early August) they'll most likely have enough time to fully mature (I live in Wisconsin).

Are your plants flowering early from weather stress down there? Here it has been too cloudy and too rainy. Actually my Alaska Thunder Fuck is doing pretty well and I think it has to do with the Russian ruderalis strain she has in her.

been 100F or over for the past 2 weeks now.Now we are in the high 90s....Hoping to get some 80 degree weather here soon or at least some rain. My 10 day forecast says lowest it's gonna get is 93.

I would say when you have clusters, like the second pic I posted, on most of the upper half of the plant. But that's just me. Is it a backyard or guerilla grow?? if it is your backyard you can setup a greenhouse to let them finish up.

Yea I was just bustin' balls, I don't use grow ferts/ bloom ferts per say, especially outdoor. I just feed the dirt to start with, and feed some compost teas throughout.

It's backyard. I have a neighbor to one side of my house, but my house and his is separated by one and a half acres of brush and trees that I own, and I'm growing in the middle of that. Still, I live next to an interstate and helicopters regularly fly over my house following the interstate. I'd prefer not to put any man-made things over them, don't want to draw any attention from either my neighbor or the helicopters.

I thought about putting a hunting blind around it when it started to get cold. But I don't think that would work well as a greenhouse, because it wouldn't let any light in. Could I induce it to start flowering early? Maybe I could cover it a few hours before it gets dark with a hunting blind that wouldn't let light in, tricking the plant into thinking it's 12/12 out. But how long would I have to do that for?

So does anybody know when to switch nutes? My clones are 2 days into flower. Not real big or old but I need them to do there business and be gone cause I got more coming behind them. Trying to stay legal, kinda.
