If you're growing photoperiod you change the diary when you change to 12-12 If you're growing automatic when you see the pistils growing.

, I would say when you first start seeing signs of flower. I wouldn’t wait till flowers are forming. Once I see flower signs, pistils forming etc, that’s week 1 flower. Good luck Growmie 😎🌱💨

Time to harvest
How much longer do you think it will take to harvest this one? She´s on day 50 now, 8 weeks from sprouting. Pistils looking white, thrics not developed yet. She´s supposed to be ready at 8-9 weeks but I don´t think that´s the case lol.

Early flower? How to reverse?
My plant is entering the 7th week today. Had no sun for a while (too much rain) but over the past 12 days she gets direct sunlight from 7 am to 7 pm (the sun rises at 5h30). At night I leave my regular lights on until 10 pm (1 meter away from bulb). Is this a pistil?

Day by Day option?
Is there a way to get more granular with the week to week information such as day by day changes or information? A lot happens in a week with an autoflower.

When to snip?
Can anyone hazard a guess at how long I have left from my poor quality photo? Day 50 of flower. (I'm not looking for too much amber, but I can't really tell what's cloudy and what's clear)

Should I begin my flush now or do another week of nutes?
Hello. My plants seem to be growing at different rates and I’m worried about pushing the faster developer past her prime. I’m at week 9 and ILGM says 10-14 weeks. Should I start my flush or go another week with nutrients and harvest around week 12?

Second seed had been growing wrong way up.
Turns out my second seed was growing upside down and the taproot had been growing towards the light for ~8 days. I've since transplanted and the seed doesn't seem to be growing much at all; although it has changed colour from being a yellowish hue to green. Is it likely a dud now

When to transplant these from 1g to final 7g?
These plants went into their 1g pots on 6/4 after being germinated 6/1. When do you recommend I move them to their final 7g pots? They are both growing extremely well in veg right now, so I am thinking maybe 2 more weeks (unless something changes in the meantime?

So, I want to know your opnions on Auto training. So far I´ve done only LST to my girls, but I see a lot of people doing topping, mainlining, this stuff that I´m afraid of when it comes to autos. And lately I´ve grown a plant without training as she´s fire compared to the trained

Accidentally poured 2mL of "Grow Big" into "Big Bloom" bottle.
I absentmindedly put 2mL of FF "grow big" directly into the bottle of"Big Bloom" (the murky one with bat guano). Is there going any type of reaction that will create products that would be unsafe for my plants? Haven't taken chemistry yet. Is it ruined?
