Flowering time....

Should I count my weeks of flowering from the day I put them on 12/12 or from the day they showed their first white legs when I'm doing cheese which is a short 8 weeks to bud?

The day I flip is day 1 of flower, every strain I've ever ran finishes in about the flowering time. I know some wait til after transition, but not me.

I believe breeders start counting from the first sign of buds. I bought NL#5 and it was said to finish in 8 weeks, but it took almost 11 to finish. However, it took 3 weeks for buds to show after i flipped. This has happened on every seed grow ive done.

I think it may be different if growing from clone. I just did White russian and its said to finish in 9, which it did counting right from flip.


So if i grow from seed I count from first day of flip so i can compare finish time between strains.

Agreed. This is why there are a million threads like,

"Why didn't my plant finish in the breeders given flowering time"

Literally, tons of them.

Clones flower faster than seed generally because they are already a fully mature plant.
