Hey guys, Just wondering when VEG is actually over and flowering begins, is it when the stretch is over that you actually consider the plant in flowering, or is it the day that you swtich your plant to 12/12 that its flowering?
It's supposed to be from the day you flip the lights to 12/12. I always start counting one week after I switch to 12/12. I figure it take a few days of 12/12 before the hormones make the switch to flowering mode. That's how I have always done it. :redbong:
When the plant becomes sexually mature it is ready to go to flowering. First sign of sexual maturity is preflowers coming out of the nodes and: "Whenever you want to flower your plant should be at a level of maturity where it is producing alternating nodes" http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Marijuana_Cultivation/Flowering Search for photos and diagrams of sexually mature vegetating plants.
