Hello i am currently in my first grow. I need to start to flower as soon as possable becasue my plants are getting too big. My smallest plant in only 9 1n. tall which still needs a while but all of my other ones are 11-15 tall. I have been reading posts on here that say eather wait for preflowers or alternating nodes. Mine do not have any at the moment. Here is some info on them i am growing 4 snow white, 5 wounder woman fem. 2 ppp fem. and 3 bag seeds. I started with so many becasue i expected to loose some since its my first time, but they have just taken off like crazy and are on the 11 or 12th node. my grow room is 4*4*6.5 and using 400w hps when i start flowering will be adding a second one. Any and all feed back would be great thank you here are a couple of pics from yesterday.

Flip those bitches, I'd cut off some of the bottoms as well, it looks like it'll be a pretty full canopy, they look nice so far
good on you

Its always better for yield to wait for pre-flowers in order to make sure that the plants are fully mature and ready to flower BUT since you have so many, your chance of getting a decent number of females is good and so even though each plant will produce slightly less bud, you will have a many of them.. forcing them into flowering right now is just FINE. Go ahead and do what you need to do, as babyboi said, they will get larger through the first few weeks of flowering (although skeptical about the 3X comment -- more like 50%-100% more growth max .. heh).. flower those thangs.. just take clones of them all before you switch to flowering and keep track of which clones belong to which mother so you know the males from females.. good luck!
