Flower time?

So, I started germination March 24th they have been growing nicely these are my two girls, Durban poison strain) sativa.
As you can see they have been lst'd a bit and topped once. I only have about 4 feet of space to work with (floor to light) not sure if it's time to flower or keep vegging. If most I think 1 more week of veg but I'm no expert. They are in 5 gallon pots(pots not filled to Rim and I have other pots larger if I need to transplant) They stand about 8 and 9 inches tall rght now. Cheers!

Flip them now. 8-9" tall after being topped and tied down is a big plant. If none of that had been done. The plants would be in 12" tall range. That's 36" of plant in flower.

Keep up the low stress. In my opinion, they're primed and ready to flower for the available space.

Very much thank you! How are they looking as far of starting the germination process 27-28 days ago? Did they grow quickly, do the flower spots looked developed enough? Also I was a little confused with the feeding schedule And when vegetative state starts so I only started giving them nutrients( foxfarm) last week, I gave them another vegetative week feeding last night but accidentally gave them double since I'm using a half gallon container. But they seem to be doing well, not overfeeded!
So what process should I take on the flip to 12-12???? Should I transplant , should I lollipop, should I flush the veg nutes(after dried soil of cource) Or should I just flip.

They look badass. Bright and healthy.


For the sake of it. Consider it in vegetation when it's about 4-5" tall. Three to four internodes high (teenager). Before that, consider it a seedling( toddler).


Just adjust the timer to 12/12. No prep, fertilizer, or flush. Add fertilizer about a week after you switched the timer.

Awesome, thank you! I'm going to switch to 12-12 on tonight's schedule, should I transplant or leave them?

I would have grown them in 2-3 gallon fabric pots. So, from my point of view. Nope. Don't transplant. 5 gallons is over kill already.

Maybe I'll go 5 gal for indicas.

I switched the two around so don't get confused in the pic.
I lst'd the streachier one some more, so they are same level now and I lollipoped both, tonight will be the switch !

Get ready for some S-T-R-E-T-C-H! My hybrids went from 14 to about 40 in the blink of an eye. Its fricken amazing to watch. Enjoy!
