Normal Plant Height?

Ok so i planted my seeds in late april (sometime between the 20th and 30th)
I would have kept a better record but i was just kind of screwing around germinating seeds then i just decided to go with it xD

now its the 17th of june, veg stage almost done (...i think, still learning here) and my plants have about 4 or 5 nodes a piece, and i just topped them all of the plants yesterday

the tallest one is probably about 1 ft 9 inches but they are all about 1 1/2 feet i guess

is this a normal height? because people say their plants can get from 10 to 15 feet but they also say it does most of the growing during veg stage, so does this just mean i will have short plants??? I hope so, im growing outdoors and they fly the stupid pot searching helicopters over every year.

Im not really sure the exact strain, because like i said, they just came up so i just went with it, what i im 99.99 % sure of though is that they are sativa, i just grabbed all the seeds out of a half o bag of some mid. From what i have learned though sativa is supposed to be the taller of them so somebody tell me what the hell is going on xD

On a side note they are very healthy besides a possible shortness problem, they recieve plenty of light and water as well.

Like i said, about 1 and a half feet tall, and just about to finish veg on the 21st i believe. So anyone want to take a wild guess as to how tall my plant will be?

I know im kind of jumping around here but i want to know now what they will be like so im prepared, i know to top them but i'd really like to keep them tiny because after the summer and harvest i plan on going in the millitary and this is kind of my last hoorah for all the fun times this amazing plant has brought me, and im trying my best to NOT get arrested by the same government who will be paying for my college in a few years xD

please put in your input, of all the growing bb's ive found this seems to be the most helpful which is why its the only one i signed up on xD
 
Your plants seem ok on size for their age. You are also topping at an ok time. Expect a few days of stunted growth while they recover. Are you using any nutes? Your plants will at least double in size throughout flowering.

Your shit is still gonna veg till the end of July or the beginning of august. Your fine my plats are all around 2ft right now. I lstd the shit out if them to keep the height down and pick up the yield. Research here and you'll be fine. Go easy on the mutes at first and then read your plants and go from there.

ok and yeah im trying to keep away from that stuff, my friend had a very nice kush plant going and then he tried to feed it and it grew like cray for a week then died lol, and since you are trying to keep yours short too do you know if theres a limit on topping, ive read 3 times, ive read 1, ive even read as many as you want, so does it really matter how many times you do it?

i assume not too much because then you will have alot of colas (i think lol) and alot of bud for your plant to keep growing

The more u top, the smaller each cola will be, and the shorter the plant.

The day we have 12 hours dark is around sept 21, but plants start flowering before that (late July, early Aug as puff stated). June 21 or so, is the longest day and days start getting gradually shorter reaching around 12 hours sept 21 and the days continue to shorten until around dec 21, after which they start getting longer.

Plants do give a shit about 12/12 we do it because it's easier. Just like dude said topping works lst works read up alot and decide your course of action.
