Me neither until I read a comment here the other day talking about how they count the flowering cycle once it gets past preflowering, instead of the flip. Once I applied that scale, the breeder's flower times aren't so far off. I might be an idiot for never realizing this, but I always assumed it was the flip and I always added two or three weeks onto the estimated flowering time.
I find the breeders info isn’t too bad...if I wait till flowers actually start to form to apply their timelines.
Without CO2 that might be a little bit high which could explain the little bit of fox tailing and subsequent slowed ripening as it's producing new buds. Medium? Nutes? How close are the lights?
Medium is canna terra, I’m using old timer bloom at the minute and the light is a 300w cfl so about 4-5 inches away at the minute this is my first grow and I’m probably gonna wait to get some hps and proper tent set up till I do my next
What do you mean by without co2 though?
It just seems like your plants are foxtailing which could be from too much heat and light for the amount of CO2.
That seems to be a big confusion in the pot growing community. Count time from 12/12 or from beginning of real flower. To be honest, since some people put plants into 12/12 before they're mature enough to flower, the most reliable number is from flower start. That's what the breeders give.
