In H and P the texts do not continue on a new side at this location. Much of the parallel text in H is destroyed and therefore only the P glyphs are shown here: 
 
Pa9-42 Pa10-1 Pa10-2 Pa10-3 Pa10-4 Pa10-5
Pa10-6 Pa10-7 Pa10-8 Pa10-9 Pa10-10 Pa10-11
 
Pa10-1 (pare) marks a cardinal point we know, and therefore the poporo sign in Pa10-2 is located at the beginning of a new season.
 
There are two manu rere + poporo glyphs in P (and also in H), but a single one in Q. Therefore it is possible that the new season in H and P is different from that in Q. Other signs seem to confirm, e.g. is niu designed differently. In Q two main variants appear:
 
top two 'arms' open
Qb1-3 Qb1-19 Qb1-41 Qb2-8
all four 'arms' open
Qb5-125 Qb5-127 Qb5-203 Qa6-22
