m0useanswered grow question 8 months ago I do it like this,
Anything that happens before the seed pops the soil, example, prepping the substrate, making the tent clean and pretty and any pics/vids you snap before hand with any blurb about why your growing and whatnot goes in germination week, germinatin week is however long it takes for the seed to pop it is not limited to 7days to me, once the plant shows its Cotyledons, is done germnation week, and week 1 begins.
From the day it shows its Cotyledons till 7days after is week 1, +7days from there is week 2, +7 is week 3 and so forth.
Harvest entry is the day its chopped and ready to hand dry. This can take 7-14 days on average before its ready
Smoke report is after the dry and cure and done and you have smoked it. This can take 1-3 months on average if you cure it.
Germination week is new to the site and we did not have it before. Most people just lumped all of what I described as germination week into week 1.
I also wait for the week to pass before making an entry. so when I update it, its always current, never doing a weekly update for the days to come.
But their is no rule on how to do it, everyone does it their own way, if you want to win contests and gain a following, update it weekly on time and provide as much information as possible.
Good Luck!
