Are these pre-flowers?

beenthere donethat has a pretty good suggestion.

Bit late to just bung an HPS over them and flower them; they'd be too tall and lower buds would be popcorn. Were they mine, I'd cut back 1/2 their height and lop the growing tips on all the branches, veg another 7-10 days under HPS then flower them.

yup, i'd say buy about more and run on each side of the plants, you'd see a major diff. , esp. in how thick ur plants r =]

don't mean to hijack this thread but i'm having a very same issue of confusion and no one has answered me thus far. You guys mind taking a look at these and let me know if they are preflowers? ITs been
