I'm new and don't want to put anyone off with stupid questions but this is my first time ever growing. I guess I just have to be patient but can anyone tell me if my plants are on the right track! These are my girls as of today. I think I first started seeing actual buds about September first or maybe a couple days before. So in terms or weeks do I count the week before when I seen the preflowers? Idk I'm just wondering about what week I'm in. I think week four. Can anyone take a look and give me some good advice?? Thanks for your time!!IMG_20200924_154551547.jpgIMG_20200924_154602518.jpgIMG_20200924_154607000.jpgIMG_20200924_154614280.jpg

I dont know about "good" advice but ill spew opinions at ya....

I count from first sign of flower after flip.... technically there is a transition period of 7 to 14 days depending on strain. Thats how i count, it seems closer to reality than counting from flip.

Gorillabilly has it, spot on. You will hear a lot of complaining about how someone's girl is taking too long. They watch their breeder's time estimate and think it is set in stone. I have a Northern Lights that is 11 weeks from bud emergence at her cola points and still has 2-3 weeks at least.

My plants are outside and there's a lot of light pollution where I'm at so I think they are a little late but I first seen actual buds around the first of September maybe a couple of days earlier so are you saying I should count the last week of August and count from then???? Like I said I'm new

First sign of flower, fwiw. Sometimes I notice sooner than others, but I'm indoor so it's alot different. Its a guesstimate at best, just pick a day you like and roll with it.

Yeah this is my first grow and it's outdoor. I'm really hoping I have at least three more good weeks. But thanks for the info.
