Ok, read some more and just from the implications of the paragraph below bud count, where it talks about bloom season, it defines bloom season as not including re-bloom. So I think that might indicate that just the initial scapes be counted when doing a bud count, even though it does not directly say that.So if no one replies with a different answer, that will make it a heck of a lot easier, just to do the initial scape bud counts and take the average from them.
