1st day/week in flower indicators.

Hi all

Something that has been playing on my mind to ask.

As its the time of the year where flowering is the culmination of all the hard graft, what are your go to signs/indicators, where you say "yeah" your in flower, day 1/week 1, simply to give you a future eyeball/ reference as to when you may harvesting?

 

So theres pistols, stretching, staggering nodes, mopping out(anything else?), and they are all quite distinct visual indicators.

Would love to hear your, go to signs. Is there a specific one, or a combination of? In my newbie status, im kind of just looking/ waiting for a wee ball of pistols, and that seems like my week one is about right. Of course the loupe( aint got one yet...) is really the tool, for beginners, to get those ripening windows right at the end, no matter what week you may think it is. Although im enjoying learning and observing these characteristics.

I try and use what I know from indoor grows, but basically I'm guessing how long they have been in flower most of the time.

 

I have all stages at the moment, one of my Triton Biscotto Limes is around 3 weeks into flower while the other looks like 2 weeks in and to confuse things further they are different phenos, one is indica leaning the other is sat leaning. I also use images from other growers diaries as a guide.
