depends on your latitude to some degree,the longest day of the year in san diego for instance might be 14 hours and change of daylight and the shortest day might be 9 hours and change of daylight (making these numbers up to illustrate my point) so at the equinox they would get like 11 1/2 hours so most strains would be flowering say a week before the autumnal equinox there...
12/12 is just a convenient way to get most strains to flower indoors,some strains outdoors will flower just fine with 14 hours of light and 10 of darkness,thats also true indoors but most people dont care to tinker around to find the specific flowering trigger point for each strain..
so by the time these are ready to harvest the light will be 12 or less..
I never paid any atention to this. just planted then waited for them to finish Outdoor of course..
thats cool ... is it the clone only headband aka loompas og cut?
ill be working with that cut into the candy drop f2s i have from ggg... really nice cut and flowers man
HB/JL is slowwwwwwww.. has not grown an inch.. she is rooted just wont grow ??..I think coming from outdoor to indoor stressed them so she needs to acclimate to an indoor environment...
Clones go way faster outdoors. They already know what they are. OG mango and headband will be my late bloomers.
That's why some guys run lights outdoors right up to June. They are mostly running clones up northDoc you hit it on the head, my early bloomers were clones and the seeds are just barely showing now.. glad you mentioned this little tid bit as it has a lot to do with early birds.. Luckily for me the early bloom is a good thing do to the freeze factor in CO.
Peace!
oh ok that sweet...The headband we work with is the original daywrecker diesel. It came from a closet in Honeydew, humboldt. This run we are using 3 -S1s. Last year we found one that was even better then the original. It had the same earthy insence fla vor, but also had a purfume exhale.
