most plants usually atleast double in size and can triple in size if sativas

i would think that you should put clones straight into flower with that kind of height

For a 3 foot finish, you should force flowering when they reach 14 to 18 inches tall, and have enough bud sites.
You can increase the number of bud sites on a smaller plant using supercropping techniques like scrogging, LST, and even selective topping. There are lots of posts about it here on cannabis.com.
Good luck!

Hey bro, like the tote idea. Anyway, in my experience I count nodes. A good 3 footer, I say listen to the branching patterns. The main cola grows up obviously, 2 side branches at each node region. I usually flower at about the 6th or 7th node, cutting the bottom two sets (4 total) branches off. This leave 10 side branches in conjunction of the main cola (incidentially aout 7-9" give or take).

Side branching imho is equally as important as height. You can see thru time lapse lil guys can get big :thumbsup:

Peace n piece. bhb outtie :jointsmile:
