When should I Put her into Flower?

[thor36]

OK, so I have a White Widow Max plant that I got as a teen and was only about 16 inches tall, I have had her for about 2 weeks and she is about 24 now. My question is when is a good time to put her into flower? How can I tell when she is ready? A little background, they are indoor under 5 100w cfl (6500k each) and 2 t12 40w. When I switch them over to flower they will be under 6 100w cfl and 1 500w halogen. I have all my plants in happy frog soil and have them on the Fox Farm trio nutes. This is my first grow so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I would flick her over to 12/12 now. If she is 2 ft now she will at least double or even treble in size during flower.
As your growing indoor i am guessing size could become a problem.
(I tend to flick my plants over earlier, purely because of space restrictions) But not everyone is the same.
Good luck with your babies..... Would be great to see some pics!!

Ya dude.. flip them to 12/12 right away.. your going to end up with TREES as it is! lol! I usually flip mine when they are about 6-8 inches tall and they wind up being about 2 ft once finished... If I let them go too long they get WAY too tall for the grow space! Good luck!
