It’s easy and I’ve done it. If you need a refresher I have about 15 other articles and books if you want to read them too.
Looking at the article, it doesn't explain what happens with other angled and cut-off amounts that are experimented with and possibly to your advantage as a grower. I tell what I know so am open to more knowledge if my knowledge on it needs a 'refresher'.
P.S. Hope that statement you made "...half ass topping", wasn't due to the derivative of the name haha.

Yes I see what you mean. I mentioned above(beginning of the thread) that I did a switch of lighting so the plants would have peculiar features due to the change in lighting in its life-cycle. I'll draw up a sketch quickly to show you what I mean :)
Here's the sketch. The 4 weeks from a to b goes to the bottom of the plant. You want a pic of it as a whole? "Lordhooha".

Well it’s three months old and you haven’t induced flowing but yet it’s trying to flower. What light cycle you got them on? Pics? Details on your grow please. Also at that age it may be trying to tell you she’s ready to start producing when the light cycle shifts to12/12
I hate to tell you but that plant is a tad small for being 3 months old. You should have a nice size tree by now. What type of soil and nutrients you using?
It does not look like it is flowering yet.
Nice color leaves!
The most important thing to learn is to keep it green and you are doing good.
The size of the plant is an issue.
Most likely your lighting. I'm not familiar with your LED lights, others may have knowledge of them and if they are enough light.
The other thing affecting the size may be your soil or medium.
What soil are you using to grow?
A bit of justification to my initial query. Thus leaving you guys with the question: Too early for a plant in flowering?

That’s an old book. But has some good info in there. And yes I think it would be wise to flower now you’ve let it sit in veg for some time.

Spot on. My only issue is the age factor. If it's still sitting in veg when I alternate the light exposure will that possibly spark an early bud to your knowledge? I want to be sure before I change the plant's exposure to its light source.

If it is switched to 12/12 it will start to flower. Not sure what you mean by early bud. But once the plant becomes sexually mature it’ll flower when the light cycles are changed. Just set your timer and let it do it thing.

What I meant by "early flower", is to do with how young the plant actually is. Incase it still has some more growing to do which I'd like very much as it is quite small for a sativa nether-lone being a mature plant. I'm definitely considering your suggestion.

What size pot is it in? More likely than not, unless your going to transplant it it’s been ready. In 7 gallon dirt pots with super soil my plants will have filled out pots with roots and are more than ready to flower. In hydro I only veg a month before flipping. With the space you have and given the amount of wattage your using it won’t get much bigger. I’ll doubt it’ll get much bigger once it’s flipped. With the right conditions and light they can double or more in size in flower. So I’d flip that thing and see what you get.

Also is it sativa? Do you know what it is? I mean you thought it was an auto at first anyways.

Gave you my reasoning as to why I thought that. Yeah the strain I have makes it quite easy to see the type of weed it is as I've observed the strain's past grows. Avg pot size is 56 cm(circumference) X 14.5 cm(height). May I see your grow? I'd like to learn and maybe adopt some of your methods if that's alright. Pot size can be an independent variable to do with the size of plant?

I don’t have any full grow shots. I focus on my buds and such but here’s some plants I’ve done in the past. I have three grow rooms I built one For hydro or experiment grow setups, a dirt room and a momma/baby room. I run a little over 6k of cob lights and about to build a 1500 true watt quantum board light.

Size of the plant is tied to pot size the bigger the root ball the bigger the plant. I don’t know what size pot your working with I go by gallons not circumference size and sure don’t know the metric system very well. they don’t teach it much in the US. I’m also back in college to get a degree in botany one have that degree under my belt. Anyway here’s what I have from past grows. I grow mainly indicas or indica heavy hybrids. There a few pics from a few years ago I’ll have to take some of my current grows later today.

Very beautiful plants! I ironically was just told today that i must do so. I'm operating with 100% recyclable material for the greenhouse other than my fan and light so as soon as i make enough money selling my stuff ill use that to expand my operation into a more suitable and efficient grow! I understand now. Makes sense as they are plants and plants grow to their environment. Thanks for the tip homie. So you're in the medicinal business then? I'd assume so considering you have both medicinal strains, how's the CBD to THC ratio?

Yah I actually grow for fellow veterans and donate to them if they are service connected. I get everything tested. Environmental factors are the biggest obstacle I see most people face. This spring I'll be building a 25x50x15 greenhouse to do some big outdoor plants. I work primarily as a network engineer but wanted to get another degree in botany just as a secondary.

That's admirable homie. Outdoor grows look very fun to do. Maintenence is a lot or nah?

Nah, we’ll not for me anyways I have my own microish farm. I have 40 acres of chickens, pigs, pigmy dwarf goats. I do several acres of my own monster garden and all that.
