    Red face after having changed to 12/12, how long before pistils show?

    Hi guys,

    It's all in the title, how long after I've changed the light cycle to 12/12 should I expect to see pistils or male parts?

    Answers much appreciated, cheers

    Varies a bit but usually say within 2 weeks you will have obvious pistils, I'd say between 10-14 days, at least that is my experience of it.

    It also depends on Sativa or Indica and how long they were vegged for..

    A immature plant flipped to 12/12 at 4 weeks will take longer to show pistals than if it were allowed to veg for 6 weeks, then flipped.

    Also, Sativa dominant strains will usualy take longer to start than Indica dom strains.

    Interesting, was not aware of that one, you live and learn as they say.

    Well for me I usually veg for no more than 4 weeks and I always grow Indica dominant, but as Monty said the longer you veg the quicker they show then again your going Sativa dom so yeah I can only guesstimate but I'd say that is a reasonable time frame, as they say wait and see but it should not take much more than 14 days I'd say...
