1st time grower

[Ill1sttimegrower]

Sorry if it’s a stupid question but what is the 9/6 and 8/6 all about? I’m 3 weeks into my first grow and have 4 female mimosa champagne and 1 bag seed that I’ve named straydawg on week 4. I am in no rush as I have some auto seeds being delivered also- but the seeds state 9-10 weeks flowering time on the feminised seeds, does this mean once I’m happy with the plants and want to flip them flowering will be 9-10 week ish? I’ve seen a lot of quotes like yours about 8/6 and 9/6 I wasn’t sure if these were dates or light schedules or what ? Again apologies for the novice question Just out here trying to not go wrong

Sorry, it was dates I switched to flowering. And even though I place calendar dates, I let the plants and flowers tell me when they are ready. I ended up leaving Jager an extra week and super glad I did.
Read read read best thing I have done.

Hello. You did great 1st run for new grower. What you mean you are dissapointing on harvest? you mean quantity? for that you have to find best growing technique for your space and for you personnaly, and little things you will learn by years they will get you more experinced and better grower.

Yes,
I am disappointed in quantity.
I have already discovered the issue in that and have made corrections for 2nd grow.
Things are looking much better now to get a bountiful harvest.

Grow #2 is 5 1/2 weeks into flower. Looking much better this time.

So I am now harvesting my 2nd grow. Though still not perfect, I am hooked. 5 plants this time and have only harvested 3 with a trim weight of 10.5oz. I expect the last 2 plants to have about 3 or 4 oz on them. I know I will lose 70% in weight, but I am excited.
