Is this the pre-flower stage?

This girls are White Widow Auto-flowers. Is this the pre-flower stage? They are 37 days old.

Your about at the point where I’d start counting the clock down for the recommended flowering times. Generally 8-10 weeks. Some count from the time they flip to 12/12 but I’d start at this point it’s easier to count down the days.

Where would I find this information?

Where did you get the seeds? Banks usually have estimated flowering times. What are the strains?

From ILGM.

Alright bro, then hop on to the ilgm seed site. Select the strain(s) and scroll down. It says sativa/indica percentages estimated thc and estimated flowering times

If it shows 8 weeks for example put a reminder in your phone calendar for 8 weeks and start checking trichs then.

Your growing autos right ? Don’t need to worry about flipping your lights scheduled if u are, just keep up good work

This is controversial. it depends on the grower, and whether or not your providing proper light at any light schedule. For the most part you are correct.

Says 8 weeks. Reminder set!

@Low i understand that is a general idea, but could take longer. Im new so probably wrong and if so sorry like the screen shot above he posted that’s 8 weeks in flower, not 8 weeks from sprout right ? I have GSCX autos so I think 3-4 weeks seeding, veg, then flower. 2 of my 3 flowered at the 30 days ish mark, like his, that’s what I thought ? So I have about 8 weeks from then ? Thanks

Yes sir. It usually does take longer. Not always. There are a couple autos that finish sooner. Different growers start the clock at different times. Soon as you have “buttons” is when you should start the clock based on expected flowering times. There’s pre flower that signifies maturity, then a cluster that signifies flower.

Veg doesn’t start until you have your first set of true leaves. However even this is debatable from grower to grower.

Yes you are past pre flower. As time goes on light alterations will also follow. I am running at 10/14 L/D schedule. I am about week 5 in flowering so half way there.
