Outdoor timing ? please read

Okay, so i have some bagseed stuff outside runnin. A Indy and Sativa growing side by side...awwww and was wondering here in wash. state when might i seee some flower action ? They are getting bigger evryday and the anticipation is building.....:hubba:

My outdoor flower box is a full 4'x8' stuffed with the ladies...I actually hand dug some 3 1/2 feet down below the"top" soil and created MassP's design ( modified of course). Full of coco coir and black gold potting soil organic version. Topped off with all organic teas and kelp.

Google sunlight calculator throw in your location/state and that will give you sunrise sun set times, hours of day light.

Pretty easy to figure out when flowering will/should start after that.

:ciao: Aug not sure the exact date..

Well here's your link and it shows Sept. 25th as begin of 12 / 12 days...
so 8-10 wks for flower would put the indy at nov 20th...dont sound right to me... the sativa being longer 'bout December 4th......

Outdoor crops are not triggered by a 12/12 lighting schedule. Its the shortening days in general that induce the plant to flower. We are having shorter days every day. Here, we lose about 4 minutes a day, so the plants have got the idea. They are in a preflower mode and are starting to show sex. The process is much slower in natural lighting, it does not all start on an instance.........

:yeahthat:
i think within the next week or so flowering is triggered
last year my crop was ready mid oct (2 months ish)
and i live a little north of you

yup yup yup.... 12 hours of darkness is only relative to indoor cultivation.

Well, I'll have to admit i think i got my answer this mornin when i check the garden and "girls" are for sure. Both indy and Sat are showing pre-flower "hairs".

heres this mornin shot of the sativa...



unable to attach pic's : SERVER BUSY

The board is for lst same as the chain hanging. couldnt upload the pics i wanted to must re-size. The pics are 2500x1900 ...lol stupid camera

just resize them. i always have to resize my pics before uploading too.
about the date.. i'm northern of you too, but yeah, should be around the middle-end of august.. though i had some sat's last year that didn't bud into september (that was fun )

U should be fine. I live in oregon and I have a freind that grow outdoors last year and his crop was ready to harvest by October. And I'm growing outdoors too this year for the first time and I beleave it will be ready about October. Just give it time for it should be showing it's sex and getting ready to go into pre-flower with in the next 4-5 wks. Good luck.....

Call me crazy but I think having that board smashing it down is doin it harm. If you tie your plant off so that it gradually bends down that's one thing. But you're not allowing half the plant to get any light that way. The fan leaves are not able to turn towards it. If you're getting impatient as to when they're gonna flower, that will certainly slow the process IMO.

The board was used to seperate the plants for pictures. LST has been in effect all along. No it gets full sun all day and has in fact grown 6" in the last 2 days it seems. The sativa is really packing on the weight for flowering.

The indy in the pictures is the same (LST) with chain on it from the begining. I have nosey nieghbors so i keep 'em down. Even though im a mmj patient , who wants to spend time expalining stuff to LEO.
