Hey frenzi,

They sound about the right height for their age considering you've topped them, it's good to have them short and stocky you don't want lanky plants.

Most growers will tell you to wait until the plant is sexually mature before switching to 12/12 as flowering earlier can reduce yield and potency. A sign of maturity is when the plant produces alternating nodes (the leaves don't grow out of the stem side by side but with a gap between them "alternating")

Good luck!
hudson88 Reviewed by hudson88 on . I Need Advive & Input Ok my plants are goin on their 6th week... about, maybe 5th. Either way, they are 10" now. I thought they would be a lil bigger by now, but hey... I was wondering.... Does anyone think I should go ahead and start flowering? I have a 250w HPS, for flower and they are under 7 CFL's now. I know they are a lil small but maybe its cause I topped em about a week ago. Ill post pics either 2marrow or later this evenin. Gotta get a good camera. Advice and Inputs Welcome!:thumbsup: THNX,;) Rating: 5
