When does flowering begin?
π·πΌπΉIβm curious how you all think about this. What do you consider to be day 1 or week 1 of flowering in an auto? Is it when the pre flowers appear? Or when the buds appear? This is my 3rd grow and I have this question every time. When does vegetating end and flowering begin?

dli 40x40 growbox lamp distance problem
hi guys, I have a ts1000 at a distance of 50cm they tell me to lower it to 40cm but the dli would greatly exceed (60 dli photone) the recommended threshold of 40/45. Having a 40x40 growbox, in your opinion, at what distance should I keep the lamp?

Light Intensity
Hi there! Last week I discovered that plants were very droopy. It was end of the day cycle so I dimmed the lights around 400 ppfd. Normally I would give easily 700-800 for 18 hours. Why is that happening now. Is it that my co2 ppm is very low? is it genetics?

Flowering nutrients - BioBloom, Top Max, Alg-a-Mic - from when on?
From when on do you start giving this nutrients? I'm considering to start Thursday, beginning of week. She looks ready for it, and I believe it'll be favorable for her growth in this stretching stage. Also considered to just increase the amount of the veg nuts. What would you do?

Will there always be fresh bud growth on an auto-flower (max thc/no couch-lock goal)?
ready for harvest bc most of the pistils are mature? Clearly not yet because of new growth? The trichromes are looking like a mix of clear and cloudy, little to no amber yet. I would like to know if there will always be fresh pastil/bud growth even when sheβs ready for harvest?

Looking for clarification on the Flush time required for a RDWC grow? I have read this can be as little as 2 days of just plain water but should this also include CalMag if I am RO water? I assume the standard root rot treatment continues? i.e. OxyPlus, HydroGuard, Phytoff?Thanks

LST
If you use LST on autoflowers, is there any chance for them to finish later? I had an experience where I did LST on auto and it took more than 15 weeks to finish her cycle. She stressed out a bit, though. And how is it possible that some people achieve 8 weeks veg with autos?
