its total hour of sunshine that starts your flowering off, once you get to 12 hours sun up - sun down then its up to the genetics of your plant if its a 6 week plant you got a week or so for plant to start flowering then 6 weeks till its done if its a 10 week plant then you might have trouble
My plant has been flowering outdoors since late july .... (well thats when the buds started) ... so am I just to assume that now I get intense trich development for a week or so?
