70 day from seed to harvest…is this still the general rule for autoflowers? I know there is some variation, but generally speaking, can I expect my auto’s to be ready to cut down at 70 days, from the time they popped?
Only if you are commercial grower with thousands of watts of lights and professional botanists involved.
In the real world start at first flower and count on 6-10 weeks from there.
For me 90+ days is average from sprout.
Thanks. And “first flower” means when the white pistols first appear, or is it more than that? Thank you again!
It has been solid sun in my area and high heat. No rain, lots of wind. I have 1 that will be done before 70 days from seed only because she started flowering 18 days in. She still grew to almost 3 foot and should give me around 3 dry oz.
Do you have a pic of her? 3 ft tall!? That is great consideringshe started flowering so young. I have these short stuby girls that don’t want to grow tall. I probavly stress them to much or they know that i attract short women! Lol!
Not the first wispy individual ones, that is preflower but when there are small “buttons” or clumps of pistils it is considered fully flowering.

Knows Candy Auto sprouted April 18. Chopping this Friday…
Edit… She isn’t 3tf tall but a little over 30". She stretched almost 25" in three weeks.
@JLM High there!! I have 4 GSC Autos going that popped up on 2/27 and I’m still watching my trichs. I think I have ‘2 weeks’ to go lol.
@Fieldofdreams Those Ladies look amazing…Is that Cocaine or Powdered Sugar you sprinkled on them to look so frosty? Just kidding…I wish you continued success…Be well, stay safe…
