when is it considered veg stage from sprouting?
- Thread starter vindiesel
- Start date
To me day one of veg begins the day they brake surface, if they get a minimum of 18 hours per day.
Day one "flowering" or "12/12" is the first day where they only get 12 hours of light.
If they brake surface and get 12 hours of light the first and following days they are "12/12 from seed" or "flowered from seed".
This is all cannabis grow tech lingo.
Whether the plant itself is vegging or flowering and when is a question for botanists IMO. Certainly not me

Until I came up with the perception that time is merely what I make it it my box, I thought seedlings were so until a couple weeks in.
But now, I consider my plants in the vegetative stage just after the cotyledons have given way to the first true bladed leaves.
I, until 2 months or so ago, had honestly never grown a plant to it's vegetative maturity yet, always flowering when it was just mere inches tall. But now I consider a plant mature as it's nodes begin to alternate. In a gist;
In my box this is how it goes down.
Seedling-First life. Until first true leaves then;
Vegetative-First true leaves until;
Maturation- When nodes begin alternating
Flowering- Pistils or pollen sacks form at alternating nodes.
Flowering Maturation- Trichomes turn from milky white to amber as they start their potency decline.

I think we can all concur that most of us will NOT agree on stages.
I also think that we can concretely establish that a plant that is focusing all available energy in developing leaves, roots and foliage is a plant that is in Vegetative stage. A plant producing and focusing it's energy on pistil, trichome and calyx production is considered flowering.
