I have searched this forum and i have not yet found a solid answer so I wanted to get a consensus. I am brewing a hefeweizen right now and am thinking i am going to go with the 1-2-3 rule. What do you guys think?
No, it's Hefe Weizen...2 words...It's hefeweizen. ...

So the source of the lack of consensus is who you decide to poll? Don't you think you'll just get the same lack of agreement, but in a chart?
My answer is "none of the above." I typically wait ~10 days before checking gravity then decide from there.
It may depend on the yeast. I have two fermenters of hefeweizen with Wyeast 3068 that have been going for six days now and still are giving off regular CO2 burps. I'm not going to take a hydrometer sample until is has settled down. It will probably be two weeks then in bottles for three days at 70 and a day in the fridge when open the first bottle.
