Hi all bit of a newbie question.. but knowledge is power!

Do was checking through my plants and come across little pistils on both plants.. do I mark that as day 1 of flower?

They are also small but very bushy do they have a growth spurt in flower?

Both plants have about 6 to 8 bud sights on top

I'd say that's pre flower ....I personally don't count days/weeks for years now, other than to have an idea of how long a strain may go for future planning. I just take good care of them until there ripe and ready. I've had suggested flower times go way beyond what the breeder says....but if I were you and you wanted to keep track ...start when you know there females for sure and the flowers/bud sites are easy to see. But everybody has there methods ......best advice I've ever been given,, was to keep a detailed journal for each strain and grow .....I've done this for many years and I always find myself referring back to it ....GL
 
Yea I'm happy to let them go until I think they're ready but is was more for nutrition purposes..

Don't know if by giving them flowering nutes early would harm them or reduce its potential?

Do they get a growth spurt during flower or will they stay small and bushy now?
 
Bloom nutes can push them to flower early but they look nice and bushy. They strech just like a photoperiod would so i wouldnt worry much. It should about double its size. Should be some nice plants!

Wow looking forward to the flowering stage then . They are 4 weeks 2 days today so still got a while I guess.. also I'm using cfl and led, should I change the spectrum of my cfl as I am using all veg 6500k bulbs.

Or should I leave it like it is until it starts properly flowering?

The lights should be good to go. Id run them together the whole way threw. It might help to mix up the cfls but id think that depends on how big your LED is. But for now your good to go.
 
How many days has the plant been in the soil? My plant is exactly the same as your by the looks at this point. I'm on day 27 I think (in soil)
Was gonna put bloom nutes in next but I think I may have to hold off and keep using veg nutes if the person who commented is correct about it only being a preflower and not actual buds and the plant has a way to go!

Here's a pic of mine

I think mine are at day 30 and dosing them with small amount of veg nutes, your plants look good though..

I will add some pk13/14 in a couple of weeks and start bloom nutes as soon as I see it start flowering.
 
Just an update on my plants week 6 tomorrow.

Still no flowering nutrients been using biobizz bio-grow and will buy bio bloom for its next feeding will also be using a small dose of canna pk13/14 bud site seem small still hoping they will put some girth on as I introduce the flowering nutrients.. what do you all think? Will they put some weight in haha?
