Hello,
Was Just Wondering Plants Have reached 14, 16, 18 and 21 inches would this be a good time to put them all into flowering? I figured if i start now they should top off at about 3-4 feet tall after 60 days of flowering is this correct?
Thanks!:peace::joint:

I don't believe that is true because you can top them and let them sprout more branch's to grow wider instead of taller and you will still produce a lot of bud. It really just depends if you want them tall or not, but seeing that you have them at 3-4 ft tall guess thats not a prob. I still am also new to this, but very close to a very great organic grower.

Maybe, I am wrong then you can flower then re-vegetate. It really just depends how big you want them.

your going to need a high ass ceiling if your going to veg to that height... I usually veg for 6 weeks or until they are about12-14 inches then flower..

i have them under 1700 equivalent watts of cfl mix of day and cool white and warm. 10 square ft ive got 8 feet of height after allowance of 12inches for the hoods i have only 6 1/2 feet to play with so thats why i need to know when to flower knowing they will double or triple in height during flowering helps.
