You edited it after I liked it so I fixed it for you.Perhaps some salient points made in this thread:
1. Breeders and the vast majority of growers go from flip.
2. Some amateur growers harvest early as their setups don’t favour the growth the breeder enjoyed
3. We covered some biology for the newbs
4. Use whatever data, facts or intuition, something! And you can ensure a ripe harvest
We got this day licked! The rest is splitting hairs.
He is disrespectful when he starts “teaching” 3 doctors walk into a bar and start talking about stints, one doctor starts a lecture on the anatomy of the heart. Get it? No? Too bad.
No flush!
Well I can’t give legit stats I’d be lying if I said oh x y and z count from flip or not. But having talked to a shit ton of long time growers and it being legal. Most person to person conversations I’m having , I find the person doesn’t even consider it at first because just like all of us , wrapping our heads around the whole picture no ones gonna think about that at first. Imo. It’s like knowing about myco before growing with em.
They’re checking clear cloudy or Amber trichomes. The scopes gold to tell if there’s any nasty shit in there too.
Ive heard many people in real life.. have an opinion one way or another. Everyone doesnt know...obviously. in my opinion its from when u flip, but usually ends up longer by a week or so than they say or right on time. So if i started counting from flower, then many of mine are done sooner than advertised. I have to believe the breeder would advertise the shortest possible time. So i think its from flip. But i dont think this info is as mainstream as u portray or there wld be 50 posts of proof on here. Just sayin..
Breeder times vary because of the wide variety of phenos in most packs. They usually go with the shortest flowering pheno time. Even sub cool himself wrote about it and said he doesnt understand why people dont get it. He says it goes by the flip not when a grower sees visible proof.
So u veg inside and put outside when you want to flip?
Oh i get it..sorry was having trouble wrappin my head around it. Youre saying u wldnt buy a strain that took to long
Also..i agree with u. Just not as confident in my conviction. I was just sayin most info is super available..this topic not so much
Hahah hilarious
I think seeds are like anything in nature. You can have 2 nobel prize laureates breed a child who can be as dumb as a bag full of hammers. Two athletes can give birth to a defected child. All luck in my opinion. If you get a great mother. TAKE CUTS
Yeah, I like that. I also love this "25% Afghan, 25% Skunk, 50% Haze" I can understand that.
I have strains that will show sex before flip, and just keep right on vegging until the flip, so how's that supposed to work? You start counting it as flowering while you're still in veg mode, just because you see pistols? Science is based on consistent facts. The only thing that can be consistent here (especially in large gardens where you can't check all plants for the first pistol) is when you change the light timing schedule. I think you may be confusing biology and horticulture.
