timeframe for useable buds?

[Stizz1e]

I have a grow going on that started as a 12/12 from seed, but when i noticed female hairs i dropped the light cycle to 10/14. How long from seed with this lighting scheme would you say until I can harvest buds?

Not to answer a question with a question...but why did you drop to 10/14? I thought 12/12 was optimum - the most light while still driving the flowering process.

What strain are you growing? Is it bagseed, or a known Indica or Sativa? The genetics should determine the time to maturity.

About 30-55 days from showing sex usually.

I switched to 10/14 because its supposed to speed harvest up a week, with a diminished yield. I did that because I have a truncated timetable to work with on this grow. Its bagseed, looks to be at least indica dominant if not completely indica. you can check out my grow journal to see what it looks like to you Freak. Its under stizzle's 12/12 from seed.

Thanks for the time frame Boss, looks like i'll be on the way early edge of it though...but stuff happens thats out of your hands sometimes ya know.
