how soon should I start to flower to keep my plants short!

[matt420lane]

I would like to see what people think about (HOW SOON TO FLOWER)!! I have a female that is a little more than 4 weeks in to flowering and 4 foot tall. I dont wish this to happen again do to my growing space... Now i have some new clones and seedlings and WILL NOT repeat the same. my seedlings are 6in tall and working on 5th and 6th sets of leaf's and they are all most 4 weeks old. I all so know the rule of they will grow about 3 times the amount when in flowering!!!

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Hi Matt

Its all dependant on how tall you want the plant to end up, the plant will grow still after being put in flower by 2.5 times its start size at flower, so if you only want a plant 2ft 6 inches at harvest then flower it at 12 inches tall, if you want a plant to finish at 4 ft then flower it at 19 to 20 inches.

I used to root my clones, then transplant n veg for 2wks or so before puttin them into flower.


as for the seedlings, grow some mothers out of them n hit the flower room with a SOG when you have sexed them.
