i have nothing to compare it against tbh since i always grow my seed strains to maturity before flowering them out..
never did a 12 / 12, and tbh, doubt i ever would.. just me..
thanks for the input boss, i really appreciate it. :)

nice buds, they could probably use another week or so, flower starts from the day you start 12/12 but will kick into full swing around 2-3 weeks, just because you cant see pistils doesnt mean the inner chemistry of the plant isnt telling it that its going into flower. dont stress that harvesting at peak time thing it doesnt effect the type of high all that dramatically IMHO
great!! thanks man!! ive been very very attentive to these girlys for 3 months and ive made sure the room has been perfect climate ... temps from 70-80 and hum. from 40 -50 .... fresh air intake from outside ( right from the flower bed ) an exhaust blower at the top, and a circulating fan blowing over the tops.....they have had the best nutrients and ive fed them properly .... and omg lol FROSTY!!!! i wish i had a new pic on my phone cause those ones were last week.... but now its crazy i mean ive never seen anything sooo crystal covered frostiness yummy!!!

oh for sure! you can tell you love your babies a lot :)
do you scrub the air being pulled from outdoors? if your pulling straight from the garden the chances of you getting pests and diseases is going to skyrocket.
yum! what are the smells comin off those bad boys?

Count from the day you flip. Don't go by what the breeder says. Go by trichs. I don't usually see definite flowers for two weeks.

Who cares about counting days in flower? It means absolutely nothing. Count from 2 weeks in, the day you flip, whatever you like, just keep it consistent for a point of reference.
idk man it seems as though that should be one thing everyone agrees on ya know? i just dont understand how some can say the day of flip and others say about 2 weeks in cause from what i understand so far and what i just saw happen in my flower room

thanks man!!! it feels good to have others notice my efforts to do, read and learn as much as i have for the last 4 months and grow the best i can ... and omg!! lol .....im not one to like say im this or that blah blah blah but i gotta say i couldnt be more pleased with my ladies right now... and the pictures look sexy as hell for sure but really they do them no justice!!! and im sure you all know what i mean lol but again this is my first grow ever and i do have soo much to learn and figure out, and im sooo stoaked to learn it!!! i go to the gro shop usually twice a week and most of the time im not buying anything just keeping him posted showing pics asking questions and hes been a most solid dude and easy to ask anything, and in just 3 months we have grown a really friendship ya know like he will sit there and shoot the shit with me an hour or so at a time and even well passed closed so im super happy im "in" with the best local shop around plus everytime i walk in there hes always just giving me shit now so thats badass!! lol anyways i wanted to say that even the dude at the shop has been saying " god damn"!! and says probably about 60-70 % of the buds people show him everyday just look like total ametuar weak shit and says he doesnt see what i show him very often .... well he does just sees shitty more then .... but yea its just sooo freaking gorgeous!!! im setting up a little bit bigger this spring and like he said i would have no problem being a caretaker and making a killing doing what i love sounds fucking awesome!!!!

that's because when people start counting flowering after two weeks 12 / 12, they get a bit closer ime, to what the breeders say flowering times should be..
but flowering starts in response to hormones which build up immediately once they receive enough hours of darkness.. most people use 12 / 12 because it's easy, and works for all photo strains, although most cannabis will flower will less then a full 12 hours of darkness

I stopped counting the weeks long ago and I use the ol' eyeball method instead. I guess I just "know" when they will be ready by looking at them nowadays.
