Depends on the strain & how long they veg. Those times tell you how long they take to ripen once they start to bud.

It doesn't matter if you force them to start flowering or let nature start them flowering, it still depends on the strain on how long they take to get ripe once they start to bud.

Growing must be different in Ca. than Mi. They start 14.5/9.5 - early aug. in the midwest & are close to ripe by oct. If they didn't start to bud till 12/12 - early oct.- i'd have to bring a snow shovel to harvest!
