Does "Flowering time 55-60 days" mean from seed to full maturity?

Does "Flowering time 55-60 days" mean from seed to full maturity? Or does it mean that once the plant starts flowering, it will be mature in 55-60 days? Was under the impression that it was the former and that the autos would be fully dine in 60 days. Was I wrong?

I would use that as a guideline for how the parents did and take it with a grain of salt, maybe a final decision here between two cities it may not be super affordable. Harvesting too early can lead to a pretty uncomfortable high, loss of terpene and cannabanoid production/maturation, yeild and just overall less quality product. So … ya grain of salt

As the others have put its 11-14 weeks from seed. More closer to 14 weeks.

I believe you're right about how thy market different types of seeds. Auto are sold with the impression that they are ready in, as you say 11-14 weeks. Which is true for most autos. Same goes for photos, you are only told the flowering time as with autos it is the most important info needed.Don't need veg info with a photo as that is upto the grower whereas knowing how long an auto takes to finish is more important as we have no control over flowering stage start... I hope this helps, good luck

I was always under the impression when its an AUTO, they talk about its full life veg+flo as their is no light switch, just 18/6 its on autopilot. But when its an PHOTO I think its whenever you switch the lighting to 12/12. eg. one breeder says indoor flowering time on a photo strain is 55-60 days. that's only 8,5 weeks. I feel its to short for a full grow unless your switching your plant after week 3 but whats the point its not going to get as big as it could. That same breeders auto strain is said to be complete in 75-80 days. That's 11 weeks and what I expect out of most autos fully grown out. 10-14weeks. This all points to my assumptions above: autos are advertised as Veg+Flo time photos are advertised in Flo time only Hope this helps.
