So my plant is 5 weeks since its first true leaves, and only 8inches as of now:wtf:. So i was wondering if i should flower now or wait, i can have a 3.5 foot plant with no problems.

I kind of want to flower now because: 1. this is bag seed, i have no idea what type it is, 2. i only have one plant going right now and i have room for 4, 3. i have northern lights ready to start from seed as soon as this is done.

on the other hand i want to wait because: 1. the plant has three main branches that would produce a lot of bud, 2. the plant is only 8inches, 3. if i start to flower now and its a female i will be pissed, on the other hand if i wait and its a male i will also be pissed, 4. i'm out of bud, 5. i dont know if the plant is mature enough to flower.

as i said this plant is short (see pic), 5 weeks since true leaves and 8 weeks since germination, so i dont know what i'm doing wrong to cause such slow growth, my stats are:

250w mh conversion bulb for veg
75-80degs
soiless mix with 1/3 perlite
ph at 6.7
water bout once a week, fert every other time using mirical grow
lime added to soil for ph and nuts

Any help would be great since i am very dissapointed at the rate of growth, the plant looks healthy as all hell and i have no idea what i'm doing wrong, thanks.
