[brianthefish]

I am growin 3 plant in my attic, origanal blueburry, white widow and durban poison. When should I start them flouring, Obveosly they cant grow to tall cus there isnt enugh room. How much more will they grow when I change the light hours? Also when I change to 12/12 do I just go from 19 to 12/12 or do I do it gradually. Thanks for the help.

You can change to 12/12 whenever you feel is necassary. You have to keep in mind though, whatever the height of your plant is before you switch to 12/12, will double, even triple in size by the time you're done flowering. So if your plant is 5inches high, the finishing height will be approx. 15-25inches in height. There is no right time and wrong time to do it, you make up your mind about how much space you have, and time you have.

I flower my plants when they are about 10inches high(almost a ft). They finish usually around 2.5ft(depends on the strain)

The light cycle you are on now, 19hrs on you said? When you want to switch to flowering, you go from 19, straight 12/12. Don't gradually change, just change it in one go. From 19hrs on, to 12hrs off, to 12hrs on, etc...get it?

I believe Zandor recommended going to 10/14 for the first week then to 12/12 for more yeild.

I went straight 12/12 as well. FLowers in 10 days.

How much do you usually yield, I know it depends on the strain but what would you say your average is when you flower at 10in.

It does depend on the strain mostly, but a approx is about an ounce a plant usually.
