Chicken or the egg

So after asking some friends. I thought I would ask all of you. Is it considered to be flowering once you switch to 12/12 lighting? (Not autoflower) Or is it when your plants begin to flower. I always thought the week or two after switching is a transition period. I’ve had lots of different answers. Thanks folks!

Generally at the first sign of pistils, which appear 1 to 2 weeks after the flip.

it will take about 1 1/2 to two weeks to transition. First you’ll see the stretch and then little buttons will form. Those buttons indicate your officially flowering.

Correct. Four stages of growing. Germ/seedling > Veg > Transition > Flower

It always seems like there’s just two because veg and flower are, by far, the longest stages.

Nope…I run 12/12 start to finish. :+1:

Mine is seedling to straight flowering. My plants don’t get a Veg Cycle. :crazy_face:
