400;\">The <\/span><b>flowering of marijuana<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> begins when plants detect a change in the photoperiod. This is a key aspect in both indoor and outdoor crops. In <strong>indoor crops<\/strong>, this change is triggered by <strong>manipulating the light cycle<\/strong>, while in <strong>outdoor crops, it occurs naturally with the arrival of the autumn season.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indoors<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, cannabis plants begin to flower when they receive <\/span><b>12 hours of continuous darkness<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This photoperiod is essential for plants to transition from the vegetative phase to the flowering phase.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In <\/span><b>outdoors<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, flowering begins when the days get shorter, which generally happens towards the end of summer or the beginning of autumn. Depending on the geographical location, this process may vary, but it is always related to the duration of day and night.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is the complete guide to marijuana flowering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1404\" src=\"https:\/\/www.growbarato.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Complete Guide to Marijuana Flowering\" class=\"wp-image-187217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-1024x561.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-768x421.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-1536x842.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-2048x1123.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-1200x658.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-1980x1086.jpg 1980w, https:\/\/www.gbthegreenbrand.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/marijuana-farm-industry-beautiful-macro-and-micro-2025-01-10-05-27-37-utc-1320x724.jpg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Complete_guide_to_marijuana_flowering_Phases\"><\/span>Complete guide to marijuana flowering: Phases<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pre-flowering_phase\"><\/span><b>Pre-flowering phase<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b>Duration:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 1\u20132 weeks.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During this phase, plants begin to prepare for flowering.
