Is This The Flowering Stage?

You

Hi everyone this is my indica Plant, its outdoor grown and it's about almost 4months old (from germination to now). I was just wondering if this is considered the flowering stage or is it still considered veg? It has some white and orange hairs sticking out but idk. I was thinking of buying some flower bloom nutes from my local dispensay.

Just starting. Time to go to bloom nutrients. I use Botanicare Pro Bloom Soil.

Looks like the very beginning of flowering to me. The plant will still want veg nutrients for the next week or three. You can feed half veg/half bloom nutrients until the plant stops stretching or the first trichomes show up, or straight bloom if you run out of veg nutes just make sure there's at least some available nitrogen until the stretch stops. Looks good, good luck

Yes flowering is starting up. I give 1/2 strength bloom nutes with 1/4 strength veg to keep a little nitrogen at first. Then slowly cut nitrogen out n bump the bloom up. And you do have a female.
Whenever you change things it's best to do gradually. Takes the chances of any shock out the picture. You want to go to higher phosphorus and potassium numbers (p&k) for bloom.dont go crazy high on numbers though. Do you have a bloom nute yet? What is it if you do. ? Brands and all really don't mean too much it's all about the npk ratio and do you have calmag? (Calcium magnesium supplement). Cause plant will like low doses of that now too. It's like $15 for a bottle that last forever. I have 3 big plants and 2 little ones and been using calmag for months n still haven't scratched the surface of the bottle.

At least 8 weeks. They're just starting to throw pistils.

Thanks for all the information y'all! But I sadly have to destroy the plant :'( (I have no one else that can take it in and it can no longer be where it is. However the next time I grow I'll try using the nutes you guys mentioned!! Also if I was to do an indoor grow do you think the plants would stay small in size or still grow tall af?

Does it smell super loud when the pistils are starting to come out or does it take time for them to start smelling. My plant has a light scent but nothing too major cus nothings really blooming yet .

Well, mine are outside, so the scent disperses pretty well. But they are starting to have that delicious odor. Smell really hits hard as the buds build.

You can manage the size indoors through choosing when you turn the lights back, and by using techniques such as manifolding, LST'ing, or SCROGging.

Indoors you can control it more.
