During the strict cycle of 12/12 she will

eventually reach a peak period of flowering.

Along with the flowering cycle the plant will

also fill out more. More leaves, more branches

and more flowers. Your plant will start to

almost take the shape of a Christmas tree. The

lower fan leaves will be stretched out to the

max in order to receive the most light. Running

upward in a cone shape she will get tighter

with floral and leaf development.

During the peak period of flowering the

female pistils on the flowers tips will swell

up. When the swelling takes place the pistils

will begin to change in colour. They will

generally change from a white to an orange tint

to a red tint to a brown tint. All strains are

different but in general it is a white to red

or a white to brown colour change (It is best

to use the breeders recommended flowering times

for harvest guidelines though). When she does

this you are ready to harvest her and sample

your favourite herb.

Each strain does have their own flowering

times and each strain also may have a different

colour tint when they reach a flowering peak.

We will talk more about harvesting in

another chapter.
