When is considered 'late veg'?

[gdogfunkly]

My LED instructions say to use the VEG switch during veg and then in 'late veg' I can turn on the BLOOM switch. Then continue using both switches after the light cycle switch to flower. Now I'm trying to figure out when 'late veg' is. If I'm vegging for 8 weeks from sprout, I am showing I have approx. 16 days left in veg, would you say I am in 'late veg' now?

Yes you are in late veg.

Great! Both Veg and Bloom switches turned on, thanks!

Late veg is never a bad thing unless you're on a schedule. I go above and beyond in veg. Have never been disappointed by the results. Lots of training! Soil seems to always recover slower

hey Gdog the wise ass in me demands that I say late veg is after early veg lol sorry
yes Jwrap soil is much slower all the way around.
Gdog I've never really planed for a veg to go for a exact time when they are ready to flip I flip . I would think that the manufacturer wants you to put on the bloom switch in veg so that it wont be such a shock to go from veg into bloom ,that my guess . I move my girls from veg when the bloom plant are at 5 weeks so they get used to the hps light before going directly under it , plus it gets them in bloom 3 weeks early
