Does anyone else have plants that don't start to flower until September? Do some plants/genetics not transition into flowering until September?
The first couple years I grew I recall all of my plants transitioning into flowering pretty quickly right around the beginning of August, and by the end of August they were already getting frosted with trichomes and they were all ready for harvest around the end of Sept/beginning of October. So I was left with the impression that the beginning of Aug is when plants flip into flowering in my area.
But last year and this year, I'm at the end of August and still don't have any distinct flowers developing. All plants are stretching a bit and a few plants have some flowers just starting to cluster/stack up, but it's about to be September and none of them are in full on flowering yet and some haven't started to develop any shoots/bud sites at all.
Is this normal? Do some strains/genetics just take a lot longer to switch into flowering?
For reference, I am in central/northern California....And the strains I'm growing are Wedding Cake, Ice Cream Cake, Kush Cake, Mac-1, and Sherblato. The Sherblato is def starting to flower, I can tell the cakes are getting close, and the Mac-1 doesn't look close at all yet.
At this rate they won't be ready for harvest until almost the middle of November....this just doesn't seem typical, is it?
