Flowering clock?
DrGreenbutterThumbstarted grow question 5y ago
When do you start counting the flowering weeks, when you switch to 12/12, a week after, or once you see first signs of flowers?

Hey there doc ! So it really depends on what is the most useful for you, after all it is your diary whether you record online or not. The main idea why you want to count weeks is to give you a basis to compare to or with. Whatever you choose , just be consistent to make sure your timing remains useful across several genetics . Usually breeders will start counting from when you first flip. Hope this helps ! 🚀

I usually incorporate stretch with veg, and once buds the size of dimes appear, that's when I'll consider it to be flower. But it's really up to personal preference. Nobody will knock you doing either/or.
Cheers! 🙌

I count from the flip. The next two weeks are transition/stretch, and then you are actually in bloom. It doesn't really matter when you count it from as long as you transition your nutrients properly, but for me it makes more sense to have the flip be the changing point.

I always count the stretch period as veg. I count the weeks of actual flower from the time button sized buds have formed. From that time to harvest almost always turns out to be 8 weeks. If you count the stretch as flowering then 10 weeks till finish. If you know how to grow properly. Cheers

Water InfoWhat water is everyone using?
I've been using spring water at pH 6.5 because my taps reading 8.3. Should I purchase a pH up/down? Also I'm growing in soil & heard pHing is not necessary just let tap water sit for 48hrs?
Any information is appreciated

Contest curiosityFor those who have experience in contests:
How do they work? I assumed that a 2 week timer that runs out would result in someone winning lol. Isn’t that why the timer is there or am I an idiot? I feel like it should be specified somewhere if not to prevent confusion for new ppl

Lack of water or its something else.Did it burn from nutrients, or was it due to a lack of phosphorus, or just because it didn't have water?. It seems to me that it is due to a lack of water, but a lack of phosphorus also occurs in a similar way.😄

MarsHydro FC-E (FC) series chip-panels protected from corrosion ?Hi,
about mars-hydro fc-e (fc) series:
Are the chips now protected (glass, plexy, acryl ..), for example like a SANLight-EVO or SecretJardin TLED ?
Asking because the old series (mars-hydro ts, sp) have no protection causing corrosion with high humidity.
I have up to 90 rh

"Flowering time" vs "Flowering"???For example I look up Afghan Kush Ryder. The overview says "flowering takes 45-55 days" and then in the description part it says "Flowering - 70 days". I assume it means once you reach the flowering stage it will flower for 45-55 days and harvest in 70. Am I close? Thx!

Spraying the leavesWhile I was checking my plant I saw these “black stains” like the plant is “half-bitten/scorched”.Is it possible to burn my leaves and create this effect after spraying them with nutes. Blacks spots were created today after I sprayed them and there were drops on leaves for hours
