Chronic 33 days flower

yeah they look about where my ak47 were at that point, and they are similar strains i think...usually i get upward growth and initial fleshing out of preliminary calyxes for the first 3-4 weeks.

during the second stage of budding upward growth stops, trichomes start to form, and i get about 3-4 weeks of buds expanding, getting fatter from the inside by adding more calyxes, the buds get fatter and denser, small bud leaves get to full size. small buds running up the main stems tend to get bigger, and come together, so that many small budlets turn into one large cola.

the third stage is marked, imo, by the swelling of the very upper most calyxes, im talking like the top 4 calyxes on the very top cola, when i see those swell to full size i know the plant is entering it's ripening period, usually 3-4 weeks long, not much growth happens, almost no new growth, what i see is the individual calyxes get bigger, and the trichomes on those calyxes also get much bigger, and in many cases they get much thicker. also during this stage the smell will get noticeably stronger, i find the last two weeks before ripening is when the smell/taste really comes in, a sad fact for those who pick at the first sign of amber trichs...or arbitrarily harvest at 8 weeks or whatever the seed company lists...especially for chronic, figure about 10 to 11 weeks till it's fully ripe.

Looks good.

Imageshack isn't a good idea if you're not medical.

Normally I'm of the school of thought that they wouldn't waste time with such shit but seeing how the internet is under assault from the us gov right now best be careful.

i was reed a bounch of stuff about when start counting flower, some says the day when you flipping 12/12 others when the buds start to form!
my plants are show sex 10 days after flipping 12/12, so basicly they are 22 days in flower

driska,
what others are saying is you are safer uploading you photos to this site rather than imageshack... this site is much more secure and safe....

to answer your question, flowering starts when you flip the lights to 12/12. unless you have an autoflowering strain they should not start forming buds before the light schedule is flipped...

where did you get your seeds? the chronic from serious seeds is not an autoflowering strain...

i didn say that is autoflower.
about flowering i think is logical to start count when you see first hair? if you start count when flip 12/12 plant fil not finish at 60 days like the breeders says but at 70, am right?
