9 weeks could possibly be the earliest time a sativa could finish, but, they can take up to 15 weeks, or maybe even longer, to finish flowering.

Fennimore is right they have a mind and timeframe all their own. They all vary on the amount of light, soil, temps and strain. Best advice is to keep a little microscope handy and check them weekly.

i have one that's good at 10 weeks, does better at 12. a 12 week sativa is a good one, not too terribly long to flower.

eek, I'm 3 weeks into flowering now, and was hoping for a harvest 1st september. Skunk #1 75% sativa, what I 'researched' was 7~9 weeks.

I pray it aint longer than that!

Most of the time with a 75/25 hybrid you are going to retain a shorter flowering period. GENERALLY that was the reason it was crossed with the indica in the first place was to give it the indica's shorter flowering period. It doesn't generally become a blended flowering period it inherits the traits of one or the other.

I've seen big lanky sativa plants that finish in 8-9 weeks. Usually the breeders will put a longer flowering period on there if it's going to take a lot longer. It may be 9-10 weeks though.

Skunk#1 should finish at 9 weeks.certain sativas finish early and some finish late.It all depends on genetics if its 100 percent sativa or indica sativa hybrid.g13 thai super skunk takes 14 weeks to finish..

Hybrids can finish earlier 8 to 10 weeks but more true to type sativa leaning stuff will be longer the longer you blooming it the more sativa leaning it is i would say 14 weeks to 20 or more for 100% sativa stuff like thai pure hazes stuff like that

I pollinated a couple branches of Pre 98 Bubba Kush, Northern Lights#2 and Purest Indica with some Blue Kush pollen. Hope to chop in the next week and then I'll see how the pollen did.
