Gotcha! Makes a lot of sense. Yeah, right now I'm counting my days from flip. Easier for my brain. Haa haa.Hi Baked! I never start my first day of bloom until I actually see blooms forming, and on these strains that was about 7 days after the flip. I find that I am almost always finishing just when the breeders say I should, by counting this way. On this run that might not be true however, since I am running in a flowering daylight period of 13.5/10.5, and with an extra hour and a half of daylight each day, I expect a quicker finish than normal. You can also see that this is the situation in the view of the buds, which seem quite a lot more advanced than 18 days of bloom should be giving us or even the 25 days of bloom if you are counting since the flip. I think it is already clear that the lighting pattern is making a big difference, but of course the actual harvest date will tell the full story.
I like the daylight hours difference! That extra DLI absolutely is making a difference. Looking lovely.
