First outdoor grow, some questions

[KushmasterJ]

I put 3 mother plants that i had indoors in the backyard a while back. they had been growing under an HPS for 1 month, there was no room for them so i put them outside to just let them flower under the sun. They were out there for about a month and they just started flowering about a week ago. Should I expect them to take 9 weeks as usual (in which case they should be ready by the end of september)? my brother told me they will take longer to finish outdoors and I should expect late october...is this true? I just need to know so that I can plan a feeding schedule and know when to begin flushing... Im growing headband and like i said they started flowering one week ago. Thanks alot for any help... Im in so-cal in the LA area if that helps

Hello Kush

I have had a search around and found 1 grower saying it takes 88 days flowering.

Start counting from when you see bud development.

I also found this interesting snippet, change the XX to TT

The strain is what will determine the length of the flowering process from start to harvest. If its headband, or you know what it is otherwise, you can research that to get your answer. I've found with my grow that it does indeed take longer outside, but your yeild can be greater if you take care of them IMO.
