6-7 internodes and 10-12 inches is a perfect time to flower.

Looks good, I would honestly stick with at least 12" before you start flowering, you'll be a lot more happy with your yield. I would look into topping or fimming your plants so you get two or more colas and even more bud. I'd stick it out a couple more weeks before flowering. But if your short on time, you can flower right now if you want. Keep up the good work!

Wait a week then start if you only using T5s. Plants look very nice and healthy. good work on the first try! especilly using hydro. its can get tricky. I am too scared to touch it

It all depends on height really, as a plant will still at least double in height from start to finish of budding period. I grow mine to only 6inches and they still finish at 2ft high and yield an oz each but i fit more closer together. So what i'm really saying is grow them to the capacity of the space you have!!
