The pre-flowering stage is a short intermediary phase between vegetative growth and flowering, typically lasting for 1-4 weeks after the plant has been exposed to a 12/12 light cycle (12 hours of light on, and 12 hours of light off).
Pre-flowering is an important phase in the life cycle of plants, particularly cannabis. The pre-flowering stage is a short intermediary phase between vegetative growth and flowering, typically lasting for 1-4 weeks after the plant has been exposed to a 12/12 light cycle (12 hours of light on, and 12 hours of light off).
During this stage, the first signs of flowering stage become apparent, such as the emergence of pistils. Pistils are small hair-like structures that appear at the nodes of the plant, indicating that your weed plant is about to the flowering stage. Recognizing these first signs of the flowering stage is crucial for proper timing and care.
