was wondering when do i start counting how many days its been in flower? is it from the first say i started 12/12 or was it 2 weeks later when i noticed the first pistils shooting out? any help would be greatly appreciated thankx
 
Start your count from the day you switched to 12/12/ then watch your trichs at 9 weeks for most indica's. And yes harvest when your trichs are what you want for a high.
 
i start counting the day i flip the switch because that is when the plant starts counting. it puts out flowers within a week and finished buds in about 7 or 8.
 
One of the hardest things for me to learn when i was new was exactly when the plant was ripe. Trichomes are a good indicator but not the only one. Yellowing fan leaves, no new buds forming, maximum number of trichs, and I like my trichs all cloudy with a few amber here and there. Hope this helps. Good luck to you!
 
Whatever you do for counting your flower period, imo just be consistent for your future grows. For me, since my first grow, I pretty much veg for 30 days, then into 12/12. When I go to 12/12, becomes my first day of flower. For me, typically I veg for 30 days, and I know most of the time, my plants are ready to harvest right around day 95 of flower.

I think counting when you first hit 12/12 is the easiest.
