Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated the second of next month will be 8 weeks in flower

Looks about 4 weeks left to harvest or longer IMO

When I saw a couple or few white hairs popping up in a couple different spots
Add about 2 weeks from first sign of pistols to start your flowering count
I call it the transition period from veg to flower don’t know the technical name
Hardest part of growing is learning patients
Harvesting to early you will be disappointed
They are looking great, so keep on keeping on
I could be wrong, but I think that’s called preflower.
Yes thank you very much I appreciate it
Yeah August 6th was the day it started to flower
Been using Gaia green products
It is a autoflower
But I appreciate everybody’s comments thank you for having me on here I appreciate it
I totally appreciate your input just trying to find tune 55 years old yes I have grown plants before but I just started getting into autoflowers and trying to make the best of my grow like I said all the input is greatly appreciated
So basically what you are saying is when you see a couple white hairs wait two weeks and then start counting?
Most growers count day 1 of flower when they form buttons on the tops.
Preflower @Lornakinsh ends at this time and flowering starts.
preflower can last longer than 2 weeks I think that’s why they say once buttons are formed
an example of buttons and the beginning of flower
If you click on my profile picture there is a link to my journal
Okay awesome so I believe I was around that time then
Thank you for the explanation and yes I will check out your page
I appreciate that I never realized or would have realized that
Appreciate the input have a great day or night thanks again
Okay great that really did help a lot more understandable
Don’t mean to just drop you a message but about the light situation how far from the buds it is a 2000 watt spider farm I mean should I be at like 80% power
This can be tricky
How many plants are you trying to flower with that light?
Is it an auto flowering or Photo plant?
How many hours a day you running the lights?
SF 2000w is A 200 actual watt light, @16" it is supposed to be around 850PPFD @100% power, about where you want to be at the last weeks of flower running a 12/12 light schedule for photo plants
This would give you a DLI of around 37
DLI should be between 30-50 during flower higher number used during the stretch these numbers very by grower and style of growing
Look into getting a light meter app, I use the photon app so you can hold your phone up around the top of the plant and get a close enough reading to actual PPFD to convert to DLI
Here’s a good read on lighting
Have a great day ![]()
Hey thanks so much I really do appreciate the help
But yes I am dialed in to about what you are talking about a couple of adjustments and I should be good to go…
Yes I do have the light meter it does help a lot
Like I said I really appreciate your input and knowledge it really helps to hear from somebody that knows what they’re talking about thank you very much have a great day or night
Is that last stretch at the end of flowering.
Stage like the last week or two
You don’t have to give a detailed answer I don’t want to take your time up like that
Take care and thank you
Yes I’m running the light from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 pm
