I usually change to my lighting to flower when I have about 1/2 or 1/3 third of space and resources left for the plant to grow, as the plant grows approximately 1/3 larger during the flower period. IMHO if you still have a lot of room for the plant to grow then let them, if you are running out of space or getting close to only 1/3 left for them then flower them.

So I have another 15 days to veg out........ Cheers

Let me re phrase the question. Vertical space is not an issue..... Lateral space is very limited for I'm using a closet? The leaves are frigg'n ginormous & its only been 4 weeks. Attachment 281561 Attachment 281562

Fellow Practitioners,
Truly not boasting nor comparing dongs, just bring to get a handle on a "good problem". So any help, advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Mates

Ok, if your plants are growing together and your horizintal space is getting limited then flower those ladies. You can actually flower whenever you like, you just don't want to flower too late as you may run out of resources very quickly. Is it possible you could provide a picture zoomed a little further out so we could get a look at your plants versus the space they have?
JSG.
This is the best I can give ya......
Thanx

Hey Guys:
Week 4 (Sprouted 11/10), have plenty of vertical spec remaining & the canopy is dead even @ 24cm or 9.5 inches. Again, its not "vertical" growth that concerns me, Its "lateral" growth!!! From my last post its easy to se that they are getting wide. Push, Hemporer, CanGro, GaGrow, what would you guys do? Don't think I'm educated enough to make this critical decision!
Sic Semper Tyrannus
:abduct:
It's not that critical....and yes you are educated enough....
We already know that they will double - triple in size once in flower.... Once you feel like they are 1/3 the size you want them to finish....flip them to flower....
We aren't physically there so only you will be able to make the best determination as to when would be good....
Personally....I like my plants to have a total lifetime of 90 days max....30 days veg - 60 days flower....but that's just me....

Cheers Mate,,,,,, Think I'm trying to get a consensus/approval as to what YOU guys. Looks as though I'm flipping TODAY!

What lights are you going to use to flower? Your off to a great start there Esteban1 but if I were you id invest in a 400 watt HPS to maximize the buds..Also what Nutes are you feeding?
Tweakster, thanks for the input.
Completed a 33 day Veg using an unkown strain of feminized females. Basic soil needs = 2 parts Canadian Peat, 1 part cow manure, Perlite, vermiculite, 1 tsp added tomato nutrient......After germination placed them in dixie cup like plastic containers (small hole in the bottom), placed all under floros....when strong enough started them on a stringent nute schedule using "Fox Farm" (Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom along with their "Micro Nutrient" line of Solubles, i.e. Open Sesame, & waiting for the correct time to use the Beastie Bloom & Cha Ching. Well over 12"'s tall & really can only guess as to their circumference? The leaves are ginormous as well as the overall health. Hoping all will flower..... Only topped one (The closest to the camera). Concerns..... Push, CanGro..... please give me a hand.... (really could use the what.... 30 years plus combined gro experience). Peace Bro's

The only way we have 30 years combined experience is if CanGro has 28 and a half haha. Your plants look nice and healthy to me. Just keep doing what you are doing. I would suggest that since you are growing mixed fem seeds, you should try cloning before you flower. You never know what kind of great smoke you might come across and want more. Thats just something you might want to think about.
Ok ;
Are there any "Cloning for Dummies" websites that you may suggest?

Its actually pretty simple.
Way too complicated for my neolithic brain.

As pushit said....they look good to me too.... What advice/help are you seeking???
This March will be 7yrs for me.... The best thing that I believe you can do for yourself is to learn how to SCROG (screen of green).... SCROG is by far the best way to get the most from a small number of plants.... A little longer veg time but really is worth the wait and effort....
CGI::::::
"SCROG" eh? Will research this & get back to you. Not truly looking for advice at this point..... Confirmation is really the point of most of my posts. Again, I needed the reassurance or schooling if you will to get my feet wet!
Thanks for the heads up. This spring competes my 1st year practicing the art of "self reliance"..... Growing my vegetables, herbs edible & (420) as well as collecting rain water, trying to become one with my environment. My body feels so much better not taking synthetic prescription drugs!!! You guys rule..... One day..... Soon enough, it will come back to you. Karma shit.

Esteban you never did answer the question I asked..What light are you going to use to flower them out? Im interested in knowing. I have never seen a "successful" grow flowering with fluorescent lighting..Im really not trying to be a know it all or a pain in the ass. Im trying to help you get some dense nugs for smoking. They will butd out but they will be light and ariy, so to speak under flouros.. Again just my opinion..
Tweakster:
Sure..... Disclosure is all good!! Using 4 40W "GE" Ecolux & 3 supplemental 45W screw in's. Please by all means give me some pointers bro!!

Plants look good..To early to tell on sex yet. Well from the pics you posted anyway. I'm no expert on growing I only know what worked for me over the many years. Using flouros may actually work..Ill be following your grow closely..By the sound of it thou your running about the same amount of hydro if you ran a 400 watt HPS light and ballast. How many lumins are the lights outputting all together?
Do not know the exact lumen amt but will say this..... exceeding the USDA daily recommended allowance necessary for abundant growth. Week 2 starting today & still a tad difficult to sex. Smells great & think I'm on track for a good grow. Between the genetics & the nutes I'm hoping for a nice yield. Can actually envision some fat azz colitas.

Update:
Like 3 weeks + & the growth was kinda bushy so I was compelled to do some twisting to open up the canopy. All in all they all appear cool. One more thing.... notice some "wind burn"....(drying of some leaves closest to the fan). Just rearranged them a bit. Hopefully this remedies the problem? Suggestions? bottomed out on me last batch & had to make a long, long long distance run to my pals co-op in the Pacific NW. "Durban"?? Never heard of it since I'm new to the scene but geezus... rocket fuel. Peace
