I run lights at night so ladwp doesn't rape me for "prime" usage which is pretty much sun up to sun down :?. Do you scrog? If so, do you continue to weave during early flower stretch , or let em go ?? Thx for the reply
I weave until its even, if I have to cut some out i do, even if its 3-5 weeks in.

Doesn't matter if you do straight 12/12, 24 hour darkness, etc... its going to take the same amount of time regardless... if your planfs are sexually mature and READY to be fljpped, it should only take about a week before your biologically in flower. If the plant is still young, and not sexually mature biologically, then it can take a solid 2 weeks before she goes into flower mode biologically.

Myke brought up flowering taking a month outside to transition... thats because the light cycle changes so gradually, and you need at LEAST 14/10 usually before a plant will start the process of flowering biologically. 1 extra day of darkness, or even 2 likely won't speed things up much, but sitting JUST on the cusp of flowering light cycle for several weeks wefinitely slows the process down (outdoors).

As for SCROG, I usually keep going for roughly the first 2 weeks of flower... its moreso about keeping the canopy even so light distribution is maximized and nothing gets shaded out. Whether or not you achieve that by weaving under the net, super cropping, LST, or all 3 combined is personal preference

canopy filled out a whole lot more the past 2 days. Keeping defol to a minimum underneath until after flower starts. Been tucking 2/3 times a day.
Got a question with flipping..I'm going out of town for a few days next week. Im debating flipping right before i leave or wait until I get back a week later?? Everything is on auto except water which will be fine. I need to flip soon but never left a grow in flower. Anyone go through this?? Petty i know but I've got a little ocd running through me.:wall:bongsmilie:peace:

I did. Kinda wished i had stopped alittle before that. It was tangie, and the stretch didnt last as long as i had planned.
Lots of guesswork when growing from seed

You'd think they would've stretched more being a Sativa.Tangie Dream? :fire: Thats why I'm kinda sketch on my grow being SourD. Never have done it indoors. I want to flip now but leaving for a week and rather if some BS happen while gone them be in veg not flower. Getting what im saying?

Basic rule is when screen is75% , do the flip, if things get too crazy you can add second screen

It's about 75% I'd say. I do have a 2nd net ready. Plan is to tuck for a week or two more then let em go and put the 2nd net up. Thanks for your help..
