Grislyanswered grow question 1mo ago Great questions and the answers I'm sure vary by person.
For me:
- Day 1 is the day the seed is set for germination. This ensures I can calculate the total grow time at the end of the grow.
- Veg Day 1 is when I transplant the seedling
- I use a manual watering method. Nutrient use before Day 14 of Veg is some risky business but can payoff
- Flower Day 1 starts the day I switch lights. Outdoors this is practically impossible to pin down
- I count each day of Flower up to harvest but the real number of days seldom matches the flower's optimum Week 1, 2, 3 ... maturity rate. Outdoors I'll often see 3 weeks elapse before a "Week 1" flower appears
